In this course you will learn absolutely everything about android app hacking. This course teaches you the ethical principles and enables you to become the top expert of your company regarding to app security. We learn really complex attacks in the most funny way that's possible, by hacking a mobile game.

Legal note:

The game we are going to hack is licensed under the GNU GPL, which means, we are allowed to perform such modifications. Hacking apps without having the permission of the author is strongly forbidden. The things you learn are related to security research. I am teaching you all of this in a legal and ethical way.

Course - Structure:

In the installation chapter we will analyze different smartphone setups, their strength and their weaknesses. We unlock our device and use certain features to already start hacking our first apps. We will learn how to analyze bluetooth low energy connections and get familiar with the Android Debug Bridge (ADB).

We move on to the android app structure. Here we gain a rock solid understanding about the key components of an android app. We will analyze the AndroidManifest.xml and learn how to exploit activities, broadcast receiver and content provider. We will write our own small apps to exploit SQL injections and path traversals.

Afterwards we take a deep dive into reverse engineering. We will learn how to decompile an android app and reconstruct the Java code. We will have a look at different decompilers and create flow- and call graphs to deal with highly obfuscated apps. Finally a nice application is waiting for us to practice all the things we have learned so far.

Then we have the treasure of this course, the SMALI chapter. SMALI is like an assembly language of an android application and gives us unlimited power in hacking them. We practice our skills by modifying our mobile game to have infinite lives, become invisible or invincible. We add multiple player shots, manipulate the fire rate and many more.

In the man-in-the-middle chapter we will learn how to analyze the network traffic of a mobile app. We will gain an understanding about HTTPS and how to analyze these connections. We will learn how certificate pinning works and bypass several different types of it.

The last thing that is missing is FRIDA, which is an amazing framework to perform runtime manipulations within an app. We will hook into the pseudorandom number generator (PRNG) to modify a dice application. We will learn how to scan the memory for certain instances and how to interact with the UI thread of an app. We will create new objects and practice all of this by writing our own trainer for a gaming application. The cherry on top will be the analysis of a native c function with Ghidra and the manipulation and modification with FRIDA.

After getting through all these chapters you will be the top expert in android app security of your company. Therefore, what you are wainting for? :)

Syllabus

Students will be able to perform their first hacks based on the android developer options. They will learn how to capture BLE traffic and the limits of an emulator / VM vs a real device.
Read more

We will discuss the concept (setup) of this course. How we can interact with a device and we also talk about the advantages and disadvantages of an real smartphone vs an emulator / virtual machine.

This video covers the core setup of an Ubuntu VM together with the installation of Android Studio. We will set our environment variables and get ready for this course :)

We will have a look into the installation process of an android emulator. We will also find out, which images directly gives us root access and which not.

In this video, we will learn more about the emulator and the really amazing options it provides. We will also have a look into some secret interfaces, which helps us location spoofing. It is not the mocking feature in the developer options ;)

We will setup a virtual machine which is based on an android image. This can be faster if we have to deal with nested virtualization. You will find more information about this in the concept video (beginning).

Let's do a quick recap about the concept and different options we have, because this might be a little bit confusing :).

Just a quick look into some useful developer options. Some of them are really underrated like the "bluetooth hci snoop log".

This video covers automating processes like inserting text or performing clicks on the device. This can be turned into playing games, without playing them :)

You will find two versions of this game. They are identical regarding to the functionality but the one having "12" at the end has been compiled for android version >= 12. The other one will work on all lower versions.

We will learn how to create and dump the bluetooth log of a smartphone. Afterwards we will have a look into the connection parameters with wireshark.

We move on with capturing and analyzing the traffic and start sending our own modified packages, without requiring the android application.

We will get a better understanding of the Android Debug Bridge (ADB) and it's components. This is very helpful to perform more advanced attacks, that also requires port forwarding.

The final video of this chapter will cover useful adb commands and shows some interaction with the device.

The scrcpy version has been updated regarding to certain vendors. Some things have changed in Android version 14 and therefore, the old scrcpy version does not work anymore. This only affects real devices. Within the emulator I do not have encountered any issues.

In this video we will have a look into installing the new version to fix the problem for real devices :)

They will be familiar with the app structure and permissions. They will be able to exploit activities, broadcast receiver and content provider. Manipulating the layout of an app will be no problem.

In this video we will get familiar with the app structure of an android app.

You smartphone is using the ARM architecture. You Java application bytecode is therefore being transfered into the "Dalvik Executable" (dex) format. Here we will learn more about this process.

This video gives a deeper view into the "Dalvik Executable" (.dex) format and also shows ways, analyzing it.

If we want to modify an android application, we need to decompile it. We will find out how this process works, in this video here.

In this video we will decompiling an android application.

The AndroidManifest.xml is the most important configuration file of an android application. In this video we will learn more about the strucutre.

You will find two versions of this game. They are identical regarding to the functionality but the one having "12" at the end has been compiled for android version >= 12. The other one will work on all lower versions.

Android apps are being sandboxed. We have a look into the permission model, how it works and also get some impression, how to attack it.

In this video we will have a look into activities.

*Update: Just flashed the information that contentProvider do not have intent filters. That's all :)


Some practical exercises on interacting with activites

Some practical exercises in exploiting misconfigured activties.

Intents are some sort of messaging objects. We will learn more about them in this video.

This video shows the "arming" and "disarming" process of an alarm system, based on an intent.

Here you will find different versions. The "alarmPin.apk" is the apk which I have used in this video. One participant mentioned, that this application does not work for him. Therefore I have added an additional check which is "alarmPin_updated.apk". In case if you are using an android device version >= 12, I have also added the "alarmPin_androidVersion12.apk" for you. I hope we should be good to go right now :)

This quiz is about the things we have learned so far about activites and intents.

We will find out how deep- web- and app-links work and what vulnerabilities they offer.

We will take a practical view on deep- and weblinks and how they work. We will cover different android versions - up to 14 - and we will also see how to manipulate the application behavior by viewing them :)

BroadcastReceiver are some sort of notifcations for applications. They can be used for various tasks. We will find out how they work and also have a look into exploiting them.

In this video we learn, how to hunt for vulnerable BroadcastReceiver within an android app and also start exploiting them, with the adb shell.

You will also find a version of this app for android devices >= 12 (SDK31).

In case if a customer demonstration is required, it might be required to write our own application to demonstrate an exploit. This topic will be covered in this video.

Services are being used for all kind of background tasks. We will learn the differences between "bind" and "intent" services and also get a better understanding of, how they work.

ContentProvider is a very interesting topic. They simply "provide content" to other applications which can be sometimes be abused to trigger SQL injections or Path-Traversal attacks. In this video we will find out, how they work.

SQL injection attacks are not related to web applications. They can be used to bypass security features of an android application. An attacker might be able to access sensitive information of your app. We will find out how such an attack look like.

Equipped with the theory about the attack, we are now performing some practical one. We will gain access to a protected database table, through a vulnerable ContentProvider. Hands On!

Path-Traversal attacks are still common in android applications and could lead to a complete breach of the app. We will learn how they work and more important - how to exploit it.

ContentProvider - Path Traversal

Another recap. After this quiz, you are absolute ready to exploit your first applications. As already mentioned, we have some challenges in the reversing section for this.

Android applications needs to be signed. We will learn more about this process and why it is necessary.

This video covers some additional information about the signing process and the corresponding files of it. Knowledge about it might be required if there are some anti tamper actions: "has the app been modified?". We will learn how we can verify if an android app has been modfied and also, how to bypass it again :)

The "Bluebox Master Key" vulnerability is an issue within the signature verification of an android app. It has been patched a couple of years ago but it is still very interesting and might be useful regarding to the other platforms / checks.

Yellow Belt - Challenge
Students will learn different decompilers that helps reconstrucating the Java code. Dealing with obfuscated apps based on call- and flow graphs. Reverse engineering and exploiting android components.

This video gives an introduction into the reversing tool dex2jar and its corresponding features.

This video gives an introduction into the reversing tool jadx-gui and its corresponding features.

An exercise on how to get back the Java code of an android application. It is not the original code but regarding to the functionality, pretty close to it. This Java code cannot be dirctly modified and compiled back again. If we want to modify an android application, we have to do this in SMALI (see SMALI chapter).

This tool has some really amazing features and the switiching between different decompilers sometimes allows us, to restore back the Java code of hard obfuscated applications.

Some practical view into Androguard.

This video shows, how to create a call graph of an android application. It can come handy if we have to deal with high obfuscated android apps.


IMPORTANT

In the video I mentioned using the networkx library in a certain version. This step is not necessary anymore. Androguard did remove this library and it should work right now out of the box.

Please update your current androguard with the following command:

  1. git pull

  2. pip3 install -r requirements

In case if you have not downloaded it yet, please follow the instruction on the installation page of the wiki. I cannot link external sources here.


Info:

You will find two versions of the "reverseme.apk". They are identical regarding to the functionality but the one having "12" at the end has been compiled for android version >= 12. The other one will work on all lower versions.

This video shows, how to create a flowgraph of an android application. It helped me solving really hard CTF challenges. This approach is of course also useful for real world applications. Really hard obfuscated android apps.

Let's recap everything we have learned so far by hacking a "banking app". This of course a training application but many findings we cover here, are also out there and waiting for you to be discovered (... and reported!:) ).


IMPORTANT:

Please install the following version of sqlalchemy if you encounter an error. Thanks Kyle! :)

$ pip3 install sqlalchemy==1.4.32

Let's try to bypass the login screen of the insecureBank application. 

Let's play around with the databse entries of the logging table.

Changing the password of this application, without even knowing it? Not a big deal because we know how to hack a BroadCast receiver.

Modern applications are now a days encrypting many of their data. We will find out how the password of this application is being encrypted and more importantly, how to decrypt it :)

Students will be able to read and write SMALI code (fluent). They will be also able to identify and manipulate complexe functions. Manipulating apps to bypass security features is no problem at all.

Let's do a quick recap of the things we have learned so far.

We take our first step into the SMALI chapter and have a look into the code structure of our first application.

You will find two versions of the "smaliOne_Simple.apk". They are identical regarding to the functionality but the one having "12" at the end has been compiled for android version >= 12. The other one will work on all lower versions.

If we want to modify an android application we need to do it in SMALI. We will learn more about this process in this video. We will also have a look into our first challenge, which is increasing the power level to be over 9000!

You will find two versions of "smaliOne.apk". They are identical regarding to the functionality but the one having "12" at the end has been compiled for android version >= 12. The other one will work on all lower versions.

This video covers the solution of increasing the power level. It is over 9000!

In this video we will learn more about registers in SMALI.

In this video will cover certain types in SMALI and how to identify them.

The p0 register is sometimes a little bit special. It is acting as the "this" operator. We will learn more about this registers in this video.

This video covers the structure of a SMALI line and also gives an introduction into certain operations.

In this video we will learn more about the file structure of SMALI. This provides us a better understanding of the code itself.

After all this theory, we need to practice the things we have learned. So let's do a quick recap.

You will find two versions of the "practice_smali.apk". They are identical regarding to the functionality but the one having "12" at the end has been compiled for android version >= 12. The other one will work on all lower versions.

In this video we will insert some real values into the function we have reversed before. We will verify if our reversing process was correct by running the application with the given parameters on our device.

This is our first real world challenge and it is about increasing the player lives of our spacepeng application. Start slow and try to increase it more and more.

This video covers the solution of patching the player lives in the spacenpeng application. We will also learn more about the width of a register.

This is just a short introduction for the upcoming if - content.

In this video we will learn how to write simple android application to simulate a certain task. In this case, the structure of an if statement.

If statements have a huge impact on the control flow of an android application. In this video we will get familiar with the structure of an if statement.

You will find two versions of the "smaliTwo.apk". They are identical regarding to the functionality but the one having "12" at the end has been compiled for android version >= 12. The other one will work on all lower versions.

In this video we will have a look into the different comparisons / conditions of an if statement.

In this video we will practice everything we have learned so far and translate an if statement in SMALI back to Java code.

We will practice our SMALI skills by changing the logic of the applications.

The file "SmaliTwo_designed.zip" contains the applications with the nicer layout. The file "SmaliTwo.zip" the basic version. It does not really matter which one you pick because the logic is the same :)

The

Beside changing the logic, we can also get rid of it. This is exactly what we learn here :)

You will find two versions of the "app-debug.apk". They are identical regarding to the functionality but the one having "12" at the end has been compiled for android version >= 12. The other one will work on all lower versions.

One thing that is missing, is manipulating the jump instructions itself. In this video we will learn how to change the control flow by manipulating the jumps.

You will find two versions of the "smaliTwo" app. They are identical regarding to the functionality but the one having "12" at the end has been compiled for android version >= 12. The other one will work on all lower versions. Same for the solution here.

Green Belt - Challenge (Patching Rooting Detection)

One common security feature is a rooting detection. It i s a client based check to verify that the application is not running on a rooted smartphoned. There is a controversial discussion about this feature. We simply want to get rid of it in this video :)

The solution video is showing multiple ways to bypass a common rooting detection. All of this of course in SMALI ;)

Bonus content showing additional ways to bypass the rooting detection.

You will find two versions of this app. They are identical regarding to the functionality but the one having "12" at the end has been compiled for android version >= 12. The other one will work on all lower versions.

In this video we will learn how methods are being called in SMALI. We also make ourself more familiar with the syntax regarding to objects.

You will find two versions of every app. They are identical regarding to the functionality but the one having "12" at the end has been compiled for android version >= 12. The other one will work on all lower versions.
