T1516 Input Injection
MobileA malicious application can inject input to the user interface to mimic user interaction through the abuse of Android's accessibility APIs. Input Injection can be achieved using any of the following methods: * Mimicking user clicks on the screen, for example to steal money from a user's PayPal account. * Injecting global actions, such as `GLOBAL_ACTION_BACK` (programatically mimicking a physical back button press), to trigger actions on behalf of the user. * Inserting input into text fields on behalf of the user. This method is used legitimately to auto-fill text fields by applications such as password managers.
