Can Jolla/SFOS be affected by HummingBad?

Apparently, there is an Andriod malware that can do nasty things on an Android phone and that can neither easily be detected nor easily be removed: HummingBad

How seriously can HummingBad affect Jolla/SFOS? Is Alien Dalvik susceptible to HummingBad? Or could even SFOS be affected?

EDIT: from what I understand, HummingBad would at least require that Alien dalvik is running because otherwise APKs could not be installed - but I am not sure.
