Abstract:Existing Android malware detection systems primarily concentrate on detecting malware apps, leaving a gap in the research concerning the detection of malicious components in apps. In this work, we propose a novel approach to detect fine-granularity malicious components for Android apps and build a prototype called AMCDroid. For a given app, AMCDroid first models app behavior to a homogenous graph based on the call graph and code statements of the app. Then, the graph is converted to a statement tree sequence f… Show more
