Well fuck. Android malware can steal Google Authenticator 2FA codes
A new version of the "Cerberus" Android banking trojan will be able to steal one-time codes generated by the Google Authenticator app and bypass 2FA-protected accounts.
Interesting: "Cerberus" Android malware also uses the accellerometers to hide itself from analysis if the phone is generally static.
