The purpose of the Judy malware is to take control of Android devices, causing them to automatically click on ads without the user's knowledge. As a result, those behind it can reap huge illegal profits.
The Judy malware is believed to have originated from a South Korean app development company. However, similar attacks have also been seen on other software, suggesting that Google's censorship is still quite lax.
Currently, software infected with Judy malware has been removed from the Play Store.
