Hi. This is just to let users of QKSMS know

1

My ESET anti-malware for Android alerted me that the Qksms from f-droid is malware. On August 5, 2020 at 1600 hours Pacific coast time, US. "com.moez.QKSMS_2213.apk Android/Spy.Banker.ARQ (variant) catagory Trojan. I don’t know how to send this info to the moderators yet, so they don’t know, at the time of this notice/whatever.

So can you point where in the source code this is done? Else this is FUD or “false positive”

Ref: (Android/Spy.Banker.ARQ) Eset Mobile Security detects this app as a malware · Issue #1637 · moezbhatti/qksms · GitHub

I just uploaded https://f-droid.org/repo/com.moez.QKSMS_2213.apk to virus total:

78 of 79 virus engines say that the app is “Clean”
1 of 79 virus engines say that the app is “Suspicious”
0 of 79 virus engines say that the app is infected

For details see VirusTotal.

Unless more that 3 virus engines report problems it is likely a false positive
