Android spyware disguised as VPN applications. It contacts C2 servers to fetch VPN/OpenVPN configuration and tasking, requests runtime permissions based on server-provided command bits, steals device information, contacts, call logs, accounts, and files including WhatsApp databases, screenshots, recordings, and camera files, compresses stolen data, and exfiltrates it over SFTP. It also includes persistence-oriented behavior such as boot startup and Xiaomi autostart prompting, and supports remote APK update/install.
