Summary: | This application discloses a mobile device and method for managing installation of an application package (APK) in the mobile device. The device receives an installation request for installing the APK. The device retrieves a permission certificate for the APK according to the installation request. The permission certificate includes a cryptographic signature. The device determines validity of the permission certificate by verifying the cryptographic signature included in the permission certificate using a permission certification public key provided by a manufacturer of the device. The permission certification public key is stored in the device. The installation of the APK in the device is allowed when the permission certificate is determined to be valid. Using the method, the APK requires the device to grant specific high-risk permissions to the application upon installation. |
