>We have also uncovered some security holes.

What security holes? The first tweet seems to be some sort of some sort of app saying it's a virus, and the second seems to say that it collects IMEI information. Neither constitute good evidence of "security holes".



And sends contacts to a server and ask for the microphone permission as well (claimed by the tweet)


My mistake, I should have not said security holes. It's leaking and collecting private information. Did you look into the Android Manifest for the virus tweet link? Merci beaucoup for correcting my mistake.


  It's leaking and collecting private information.
How is this any different from any banking app?


Not much.
