Welcome back, my aspiring cyberwarriors!

In light of the recent revelations regarding Israel’s NSO group and their cellphone malware known as Pegasus, I thought it would be good time to catalog some of the better-known Remote Access Trojans (RATs) available for the Android OS. This is not meant as an exhaustive list, but simply a list of some of the better known RATS. If you know of others not on this list, please email me at occupytheweb@protonmail.com.

I have tried to compile a list with each RATS name, source-code location (if open source) and key features.

Cerberus Banking

https://vxug.fakedoma.in/code/leaks/CerberusLeak.zip since deleted

Cerberus is a banking RAT targeting the Android OS. First spotted in June 2019. It was embedded in Google Play apps. Developers tried to auction source code for $100,000 but when that failed, they released it for free to public. Developers claim that it uses no code from previous RATS making it harder to detect with AV.

Pegasus

Developed by the Israeli cyberarms company, NSO group, and sold to government’s around the world, Pegasus is among the most expensive and effective mobile spyware. Available for both the IPhone and Android, Pegasus enables a jailbreak on the device. It has been effectively used by the UAE to spy on Ahmed Mansoor in 2016, the Mexican drug cartels to spy on Mexican journalists, and Saudi Arabia to spy on Jamal Khashoggi, the Washington Post journalist, before killing and dismembering him in the Saudi embassy in Turkey.
