:mastorage: Bis zu 11 Millionen iOS-Geräte von VASTFLUX betroffen: Bei #VASTFLUX wurde mit manipuliertem JavaScript-Code gearbeitet, der in Anzeigen injiziert wurde, so Human Security. Den Betrügern gelang es so, zahlreiche für den Nutzer unsichtbare Videoplayer in Apps hintereinander zu platzieren – offenbar bis zu 25 Stück gleichzeitig – und darüber dann Ad Views (Anzeigenauslieferungen) zu generieren. https://www.heise.de/news/Anzeigenbetrug-Bis-zu-11-Millionen-iOS-Geraete-von-VASTFLUX-betroffen-7469040.html
