While it's a very good idea, Android probably has checks in place to detect continuous high usage of CPU by apps.
-
As far as I know, not really but I need to check on the latest Android releases
-
Actually some of the latest phones have. They warn you about apps who are consuming high CPU and draining the batteries. Latest phones having Android N or above I believe. OnePlus especially is good in flagging off such apps.

Mostly by checking multiple mining libs and/or network traffic. CPU consumption abnormal behavior has a lot of FPs ;)
-
Thanks! I will start by checking the network traffic.

Peut-être qu'en cherchant des références aux scripts de minage (type Coinhive) dans le code, ça peut le faire ? Poke encore
@ExodusPrivacy qui pourrait l'ajouter. -
My idea was more to check regularly the CPU consumption in order to detect abnormal behaviour
-
Maybe by checking for the presence of constants used for the crypto algorithm used in mining, e.g. curve parameters for secp256k1 or start state of SHA-256? :)
-
If we can determine the code signature of Coinhive, we can detect it with our regular method.

Coin mining hit a high around new year. But on the way down. Network detection Signatures available in many repos.
-
Any links?

The trend I quoted is from a confidential report. The sigs and analysis are publicly available from many security vendors such as PA. https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/resources/blogs/unit42-unauthorized-coin-mining-browser.html …

Android 8 will tell you if an app is using alot of power in the background.
