Those apps are not exactly malicious, they require some permissions which most of them are well known. Yes some of those apps can be considered high risk, but also they need those permissions. If you  want to block some permissions you can use an app like "LBE Privacy Guard" or "PDroid Privacy Protection" (ROOT is required)
