TLDR

A new Android malware named Sturnus can bypass the encryption of secure messaging apps like Signal, Telegram, and WhatsApp, allowing hackers to read messages after they are decrypted and displayed on the screen. This threat, currently in development, uses a combination of plaintext, RSA, and AES encryption to evade detection and steal sensitive information, posing a significant risk to both individual users and organizations.
