       According to domestic media reports, when using shared power banks to charge your phone when you are out, you should also be careful, because some shared power banks carry the risk of privacy leakage.

  So how does the power bank steal personal privacy? The technicians conducted an experiment, first taking 4 photos and saving them in the mobile phone album, and then using a charging cable without data transmission function to connect the power bank, the background failed to read the mobile phone information.

  However, if a charging cable that can transmit mobile phone data is used, the power bank can upload its internal malicious program to the mobile phone, and the background will immediately display the four photos just taken.

  After the connection is disconnected, the attacker can still control the phone. Using the attack program, the address book can be read in real time, the front and rear cameras can be easily called when the screen is locked, and even real-time monitoring can be performed.

  According to technicians, by removing a few batteries from a power bank and replacing them with a chip, various malicious programs can be implanted into the user's mobile phone.

  Experts remind that when using external power banks, you must be cautious if there are reminders on your phone that require user authorization or to turn on debugging mode.
