Apkleaks is a static analysis tool and security auditor designed to extract hardcoded secrets, API endpoints, and sensitive data from Android application packages. It operates as a secret scanner that analyzes compiled binaries without executing them to identify potential information leaks and insecure endpoints. The tool utilizes a regex-based data extraction engine to identify sensitive strings within decompiled code. It supports customization through JSON-defined search patterns and provides configuration flags to tune the behavior of the underlying disassembler. The analysis pipeline enc

A security focused static analysis tool for Android and Java applications.

Frida is a dynamic binary instrumentation toolkit that provides a framework for deep process introspection and live application state manipulation. It enables the injection of custom scripts into running processes to trace function calls, modify memory, and analyze application behavior in real-time across diverse operating systems and processor architectures. The project distinguishes itself by embedding a high-performance JavaScript engine directly within the target process, allowing for the execution of user-defined logic for real-time inspection. It utilizes instruction-level hooking to re

Drozer is a security testing framework and runtime analyzer for Android applications and devices. It functions as an exploit management framework and a security toolset used to identify vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and leaks within the Android operating system and its installed applications. The framework enables the simulation of application behavior and the interaction with communication endpoints to detect security flaws. It manages the execution, analysis, and sharing of public exploits for mobile security research. The system provides capabilities for application auditing, vulner

Needle is an open source, modular framework to streamline the process of conducting security assessments of iOS apps.

JustTrustMe is an Android security auditing tool and mobile application penetration testing utility. Its primary purpose is to bypass hardcoded certificate requirements and disable SSL pinning in mobile applications to allow the inspection of encrypted API requests and responses. The project functions as a dynamic method hooking module that integrates with the Xposed framework. It uses system-level instrumentation to intercept Java runtime function calls and override security checks within third-party Android applications. The tool covers a range of capabilities including the disabling of SS

Apktool is an Android APK reverse engineering tool designed to decode application packages into human-readable form and rebuild them after modification. It functions as a Dalvik bytecode disassembler and a resource decoder, transforming binary Android XML and DEX files into editable text and Smali representation. The project serves as an application rebuilder, packing modified resources and Smali code back into a functional Android application package. This capability enables the modification of application logic and resources for testing and deployment. The tool covers a broad surface of an

Clutch is a command-line utility designed for security research on jailbroken mobile devices. It functions as a specialized toolkit for identifying, decrypting, and extracting installed mobile application binaries to facilitate manual code inspection and vulnerability assessment. The tool provides capabilities for removing platform-level encryption from protected software, allowing researchers to isolate core executable files from application bundles. By performing memory-mapped file dumping and reconstructing binary headers, it enables the conversion of protected applications into portable,

Tool to look for several security related Android application vulnerabilities

This project is an Android security analysis toolkit and mobile app runtime manipulator designed for reverse engineering and auditing mobile applications. It provides a system for modifying Java classes and method behavior in active mobile processes to bypass security controls. The toolkit includes a web-based interface for controlling the instrumentation engine and a specialized utility for disabling certificate validation to intercept and inspect encrypted network traffic via SSL pinning bypass. It also features an Android file explorer for browsing and managing files within private data di

Mobile Security Framework is an automated security testing platform designed for the analysis of Android, iOS, and Windows mobile application binaries. It functions as a comprehensive suite for identifying security vulnerabilities, privacy risks, and malicious code within mobile software packages. The framework distinguishes itself by combining static and dynamic analysis techniques to evaluate application behavior. It performs static inspection of source code and binaries to detect insecure patterns, while simultaneously utilizing dynamic instrumentation and containerized sandboxing to monit

This project is a command-line forensic toolkit designed for the investigation and security auditing of mobile devices. It provides a framework for collecting system logs, application data, and forensic artifacts to identify potential security breaches, unauthorized access, or evidence of malicious activity. The utility employs a modular extraction architecture that parses diverse file formats and system logs into a standardized, normalized data structure. By utilizing this unified format, the tool performs both heuristic analysis of system metadata and pattern matching against structured thr
