WikiLeaks reveals the tool used by the CIA  
to steal SMS on Android
WikiLeaks recently revealed details of another CIA hacking device as part of the Volt 7 leaks, saying that in addition to Windows and Linux systems, the agency was also targeting Android smartphones.
The new tool is called HighRise, which is basically malicious software for the Android system that can intercept text messages and send them to the CIA server, allowing the agency clients to read any conversation on the victim's machine with ease. Specifically, the CIA used an application called TideCheck to deploy the tool. It should be noted that the agency needs to be already in control of the device to do so, which means that there are other tools more powerful to penetrate the devices Android installed on the system in advance. Once the tool is installed, the client must manually launch it via the password on the first boot. According to the WikiLeaks manual, the password is "inshallah", ie "inshaAllah". The tool dates back to 2013 as it was only running on Android 4.0 to 4.3, but it is likely that the CIA has already updated the tool to target newer versions of the operating system.
