A Method of Malicious Application Detection

摘要

With the rapid development of broadband wireless access technology and mobile terminal, the mobile internet developed quickly in recent years. However, malicious applications have become one of the key factors threatening the development of mobile internet. In order to protect vital interest of mobile terminal users, mobile malicious applications should be effectively prevented and controlled. This paper analyzes the existence limitation of current mobile application detection technology and uses symbolic execution on the base of stream tracing. Malicious code writers usually hide malicious code execution path, and in some special circumstances to trigger some malicious behaviors. We constraint solve execution routes with sensitive calls, and ultimately solve the specific backstage behaviors and trigger conditions. We did some experiments to evaluate the performance of the proposed method. The experimental results show that our method can work well.
