Dog Wars App Carrying Animal Rights Android Trojan

Dog Wars App Carrying Animal Rights Android Trojan

Dog Wars is back in the news, and it isn't due to Michael Vick calling for the removal of the game from the Android Market. The already controversial app has seen an older version hijacked and pumped full of malware, according to Irfan Asrar of Symantec. Unlike some other nasty Android trojans, however, the one found within Dog Wars is designed to shame the person that downloaded it rather than cause harm to their handset.
