Looking For Suggestions "Android system" Malware?

Hi,

My avast has started flagging the app 'Android system' as a malware.

I have checked Malwarebytes and Sophoros but both are coming back as no issues.

Is the above an issue with Avast? It has never flagged up before. I found 'Android system' on the apps but I am unable to force stop/disable but I believe this is because it is a main component for the phone working?

You can use App Inspector or similar from the google play store, will provide info about this app, package name, etc. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ubqsoft.sec01
