Abstract

The smartphone sensors provide extraordinary user experience in various Android apps, e.g. sport apps, gravity sensing games. Recent works have been proposed to launch powerful sensor-based attacks such as location tracing and sound eavesdropping. The use of sensors does not require any permission in Android apps, so these attacks are very difficult to be noticed by the app users. Furthermore, the combination of various kinds of sensors generates numerous types of attacks which are hard to be systematically studied.
