I think I just allowed a malware executable "saved to drive" (IOS): Need Answer Fast

not freaking, yet. On iPad, luckily.

From “State Court” no - name. Notice to appear, document list enclosed.

Un.ziped it, .js file opened in my PDF reader GoodReader, then, Microsoft Pages, the clicked on “saved to drive,” which is an option on any enclosure. Just random letters and numbers, as far as I can see.

.js is a Java script right? (Creeping terror…)

I have no idea where the thing is now, if it hasn’t done its bad stuff yet.
WhadoIdo?

“Pages” isn’t a Microsoft app. Delete the shit and don’t worry about it.

.js is a Javascript file extension. Javascript is entirely unrelated from Java and is, while a common threat vector, also very safe. To the best of my knowledge, it cannot be run on iOS outside of a highly secured browser environment.

In short–you probably did not download malware, even if you did you couldn’t execute it, and even if you could execute it almost certainly couldn’t do any harm.

Thank you.

But I’m still pissed off that I don’t know what “saved to drive” means when I click on an attachment with a recently invented (to me) kind of parrellograms-in-a-circle symbol which I always thought meant “here be jpgs,” or something, and I was offered the “save to photos” optin when I clicked it.

I think with a photo it also gave me a “save to drive” option, and I ignored it because I have no idea where it would go.

So where did this maybe-malware get saved to?

who knows? iOS is “intuitive,” don’t’cha know.
