Beware of malicious USB cables. They can come with hidden software/hardware built in that can download and execute malicious software once plugged into your device. Read more about the threats here and here.

Best to avoid buying cheap knockoff cables or using public charging kiosks, which are prone to juice jacking attacks.

Holy sh.t....
I was not aware of these kind of risks before... thanks for sharing and pointing it out...
Now, I can ask myself why I haven't already thought about this very evident way of attacking USB powered/connected devices.... It's terrific, because 99% of the people won't think about this also, before they become the victim of this kind of attack...
