The FBI is warning people about malicious code for their mobile devices.

One of the ones they are warning about affects all mobile OS's except for Windows Phone. :D

The infamous FinFisher cyber espionage tool has gone mobile, malware style. Multiple mobile Trojans for the Android, iOS, BlackBerry, Symbian, and Windows Mobile platforms have been discovered .

The Windows Mobile threat provides interception and monitoring capabilities (Windows Phone appears unaffected).

Just seeing the kind of permissions we give while installing an app on Android gives me nightmares..
