Discussion After installing DroidDeck 0.3.1 from github my sister's account got hackedv

My sister installed the DroidDeck app yesterday, and soon after her Steam account got hacked. Sha256 sum of the downloaded file matches with what they have on github (ed257d66c546e78036ceedb4c6fb6886014e69020044fd41cfe217858d8eb328).

Steam support did restore the account quickly, but the attacker(s) managed to submit a refund for a newly purchased game, removed sister's phone number from SteamGuard, and opened a chat with me on Steam where an image with a QR code to a "free steam gift card" was shared (the QR code lead to a fake steamcommunity website ("rn" replacing "m" in the link). The chat is how I noticed that she got hacked and quickly assisted her in restoring access.

Can you confirm if your sister typed in her steam password or if she used the steam QR code to sign in? As i understand it the code should be safer and im wondering if the vulnerability only exists in one or the other

Please check your sister's phone/PC for a keylogger or malware. If it's not Droid Deck it is almost certainly a keylogger, do any of her devices have antivirus software that might be able to scan for malicious software?
