Android Penetration Testing Cheat Sheet

This is more of a checklist for myself. May contain useful tips and tricks. Still need to add a lot of things.

Everything was tested on Kali Linux v2023.1 (64-bit) and Samsung A5 (2017) with Android OS v8.0 (Oreo) and Magisk root v25.2.

Check Magisk if you want to root your Android device. I have no liability over your actions.

For help with any of the tools type <tool_name> [-h | -hh | --help] or man <tool_name>.

If you didn't already, read OWASP MSTG and OWASP MASVS. You can download OWASP MSTG checklist from here.

Highly recommend reading HackTricks - Android Applications Pentesting.

Websites that you should use while writing the report:

My other cheat sheets:

Future plans:

install Burp Proxy and ZAP certificates,
test widgets, push notifications, and Firebase,
deeplink hijacking, task hijacking, intent hijacking,
intent provider injections, content provider injections, broadcast receiver injections,
SMALI code injection,
WebView attacks,
create more Frida scripts.

1. Basics

Android Debug Bridge (ADB)

Start the server:

adb start-server

Stop the server:

adb kill-server

List attached devices:

adb devices

Connect to a remote device using WiFi ADB:

adb connect 192.168.1.10:5555

Open a system shell as non-root:

adb shell

Open a system shell as root:

adb shell su

Install/Uninstall an APK

Install an APK (specify -s to install the APK to a removable storage):

adb install someapp.apk

adb install -s someapp.apk

Uninstall an APK (specify -k to keep the data and cache directories):

adb uninstall com.someapp.dev

adb uninstall -k com.someapp.dev

Pull an APK (base.apk)

adb shell pm list packages 'keyword' | cut -d ':' -f2

adb pull $(adb shell pm path com.someapp.dev | cut -d ':' -f2 | grep 'base.apk') ./

Pull an APK by specific keyword (one-liner):

keyword="keyword"; pkg=$(adb shell pm list packages "${keyword}" | head -n 1 | cut -d ':' -f2); adb pull $(adb shell pm path "${pkg}" | cut -d ':' -f2 | grep 'base.apk') ./

Download/Upload Files and Directories

Some of the internal storage paths:

cd /data/local/tmp/

cd /data/data/com.someapp.dev/cache/
cd /data/user/0/com.someapp.dev/cache/

cd /mnt/sdcard/Android/data/com.someapp.dev/cache/
cd /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.someapp.dev/cache/

cd /mnt/sdcard/Android/obb/com.someapp.dev/cache/
cd /storage/emulated/0/Android/obb/com.someapp.dev/cache/

cd /mnt/media_rw/3664-6132/Android/data/com.someapp.dev/files
cd /storage/3664-6132/Android/data/com.someapp.dev/files

Number 0 in both, /data/user/0/ and /storage/emulated/0/ paths, represents the first user in a multi-user device.

Don't confuse /mnt/sdcard/ path with a real removable storage path because sometimes such path is device specific, so you will need to search it on the internet or extract it using some Java code. In my case it is /mnt/media_rw/3664-6132/ path.

XML                     -->  Java Method                                -->  Path

<files-path/>           -->  getContext().getFilesDir()                 -->  /data/user/0/com.someapp.dev/files

<cache-path/>           -->  getContext().getCacheDir()                 -->  /data/user/0/com.someapp.dev/cache

<external-path/>        -->  Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory()  -->  /storage/emulated/0

<external-files-path/>  -->  getContext().getExternalFilesDir("")       -->  /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.someapp.dev/files

<external-cache-path/>  -->  getContext().getExternalCacheDir()         -->  /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.someapp.dev/cache

<external-media-path/>  -->  getContext().getExternalMediaDirs()        -->  /storage/emulated/0/Android/media/com.someapp.dev
                                                                             /storage/3664-6132/Android/media/com.someapp.dev
																   
-                       -->  getContext().getExternalFilesDirs("")      -->  /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.someapp.dev/files
                                                                             /storage/3664-6132/Android/data/com.someapp.dev/files

Tilde ~ is short for the root directory.

Download a file or directory from your Android device:

adb pull ~/somefile.txt ./

adb pull ~/somedir ./

Keep in mind that not all directories have the write and/or execute permission; regardless, you can always upload files to and execute from /data/local/tmp/ directory.

Upload a file or directory to your Android device:

adb push somefile.txt /data/local/tmp/

adb push somedir /data/local/tmp/

Empty directories will not be uploaded.

Bypassing Permission Denied

Download a file from your Android device:

adb shell su -c 'cat ~/somefile.txt' > somefile.txt

adb shell su -c 'run-as com.someapp.dev cat ~/somefile.txt' > somefile.txt

Download a directory from your Android device:

dir="somedir"; IFS=$'\n'; for subdir in $(adb shell su -c "find \"${dir}\" -type d"); do mkdir -p ".${subdir}"; done; for file in $(adb shell su -c "find \"${dir}\" -type f"); do adb shell su -c "cat \"${file// /\\\ }\"" > ".${file}"; done;

Upload a file or directory to your Android device:

src="somefile.txt"; dst="/data/data/com.someapp.dev/"; tmp="/data/local/tmp/"; base=$(basename "${src}"); adb push "${src}" "${tmp}"; adb shell su -c "cp -r \"${tmp}${base}\" \"${dst}\" && rm -rf \"${tmp}${base}\""

3. Search for Files and Directories

Search for files and directories from the root directory:

find / -iname '*keyword*'

Search for files and directories in the app specific directories (run env in Objection):

cd /data/user/0/com.someapp.dev/

cd /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.someapp.dev/

cd /storage/emulated/0/Android/obb/com.someapp.dev/

If you want to download a whole directory from your Android device, see section Download/Upload Files and Directories.

I preffer downloading the app specific directories, and then doing the file inspection on my Kali Linux.

Search for files and directories from the current directory:

find . -iname '*keyword*'

for keyword in 'access' 'account' 'admin' 'card' 'cer' 'conf' 'cred' 'customer' 'email' 'history' 'info' 'json' 'jwt' 'key' 'kyc' 'log' 'otp' 'pass' 'pem' 'pin' 'plist' 'priv' 'refresh' 'salt' 'secret' 'seed' 'setting' 'sign' 'sql' 'token' 'transaction' 'transfer' 'tar' 'txt' 'user' 'zip' 'xml'; do find . -iname "*${keyword}*"; done

SharedPreferences

Search for files and directories in SharedPreferences insecure storage directory:

cd /data/user/0/com.someapp.dev/shared_prefs/

The files should not be world-readable (e.g. -rw-rw-r--):

ls /data/user/0/com.someapp.dev/shared_prefs/ -al

The production build should not be debuggable.

Download a file from SharedPreferences as non-root:

adb exec-out run-as com.someapp.dev cat /data/user/0/com.someapp.dev/shared_prefs/somefile.xml > somefile.xml

If the production build is debuggable, it is possible to get the read access rights to the app specific directories as a low-privileged user by leveraging run-as command.

SharedPreferences is unencrypted and backed up by default, and as such, should not contain any sensitive data after user logs out - it should be cleared by calling SharedPreferences.Editor.clear(). It should also be excluded from backups by specifying dataExtractionRules inside app's AndroidManifest.xml.

4. Inspect Files

Inspect memory dumps, binaries, files inside a decompiled APK, files inside the app specific directories, or any other files.

After you finish testing [and logout], don't forget to download the app specific directories and inspect all the files inside. Inspect what is new and what still persists after logout.

There will be some false positive results since the regular expressions are not perfect. I prefer to use rabin2 over strings because it can read Unicode characters.

On your Android device, try to modify app's files to test the filesystem checksum validation, i.e. to test the file integrity validation.

Single File

Search for hardcoded sensitive data:

rabin2 -zzzqq somefile | grep -Pi '[^\w\d\n]+(?:basic|bearer)\ .+'

rabin2 -zzzqq somefile | grep -Pi '(?:access|account|admin|basic|bearer|card|conf|cred|customer|email|history|id|info|jwt|key|kyc|log|otp|pass|pin|priv|refresh|salt|secret|seed|setting|sign|token|transaction|transfer|user)[\w\d]*(?:\"\ *\:|\ *\=).+'

rabin2 -zzzqq somefile | grep -Pi '[^\w\d\n]+(?:bug|comment|fix|issue|note|problem|to(?:\_|\ |)do|work)[^\w\d\n]+.+'

Extract URLs, deeplinks, IPs, etc.:

rabin2 -zzzqq somefile | grep -Po '\w+\:\/\/[\w\-\.\@\:\/\?\=\%\&\#]+' | sort -uf | tee urls.txt

rabin2 -zzzqq somefile | grep -Po '(?:\b25[0-5]|\b2[0-4][0-9]|\b[01]?[0-9][0-9]?)(?:\.(?:25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?)){3}' | sort -uf | tee ips.txt

Extract all strings and decode Base64 strings:

rabin2 -zzzqq somefile | sort -uf > strings.txt

grep -Po '(?:[a-zA-Z0-9\+\/]{4})*(?:[a-zA-Z0-9\+\/]{4}|[a-zA-Z0-9\+\/]{3}\=|[a-zA-Z0-9\+\/]{2}\=\=)' strings.txt | sort -uf > base64.txt

for string in $(cat base64.txt); do res=$(echo "${string}" | base64 -d 2>/dev/null | grep -PI '[\s\S]+'); if [[ ! -z $res ]]; then echo -n "${string}\n${res}\n\n"; fi; done | tee base64_decoded.txt

Multiple Files

Search for hardcoded sensitive data:

IFS=$'\n'; for file in $(find . -type f); do echo -n "\nFILE: \"${file}\"\n"; rabin2 -zzzqq "${file}" 2>/dev/null | grep -Pi '[^\w\d\n]+(?:basic|bearer)\ .+'; done

IFS=$'\n'; for file in $(find . -type f); do echo -n "\nFILE: \"${file}\"\n"; rabin2 -zzzqq "${file}" 2>/dev/null | grep -Pi '(?:access|account|admin|basic|bearer|card|conf|cred|customer|email|history|id|info|jwt|key|kyc|log|otp|pass|pin|priv|refresh|salt|secret|seed|setting|sign|token|transaction|transfer|user)[\w\d]*(?:\"\ *\:|\ *\=).+'; done

IFS=$'\n'; for file in $(find . -type f); do echo -n "\nFILE: \"${file}\"\n"; rabin2 -zzzqq "${file}" 2>/dev/null | grep -Pi '[^\w\d\n]+(?:bug|comment|fix|issue|note|problem|to(?:\_|\ |)do|work)[^\w\d\n]+.+'; done

Extract URLs, deeplinks, IPs, etc.:

IFS=$'\n'; for file in $(find . -type f); do rabin2 -zzzqq "${file}" 2>/dev/null; done | grep -Po '\w+\:\/\/[\w\-\.\@\:\/\?\=\%\&\#]+' | grep -Piv '\.(css|gif|jpeg|jpg|ogg|otf|png|svg|ttf|woff|woff2)' | sort -uf | tee urls.txt

IFS=$'\n'; for file in $(find . -type f); do rabin2 -zzzqq "${file}" 2>/dev/null; done | grep -Po '(?:\b25[0-5]|\b2[0-4][0-9]|\b[01]?[0-9][0-9]?)(?:\.(?:25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?)){3}' | sort -uf | tee ips.txt

Extract all strings and decode Base64 strings:

IFS=$'\n'; for file in $(find . -type f); do rabin2 -zzzqq "${file}" 2>/dev/null; done | sort -uf > strings.txt

grep -Po '(?:[a-zA-Z0-9\+\/]{4})*(?:[a-zA-Z0-9\+\/]{4}|[a-zA-Z0-9\+\/]{3}\=|[a-zA-Z0-9\+\/]{2}\=\=)' strings.txt | sort -uf > base64.txt

for string in $(cat base64.txt); do res=$(echo "${string}" | base64 -d 2>/dev/null | grep -PI '[\s\S]+'); if [[ ! -z $res ]]; then echo -n "${string}\n${res}\n\n"; fi; done | tee base64_decoded.txt

File Scraper

Automate all of the above file scraping (and more) with a single tool.

apt-get -y install radare2

pip3 install file-scraper

file-scraper -dir source -o results.html -e default

More about my other project at ivan-sincek/file-scraper.

SQLite 3

Use adb to download database files, and then open them using DB Browser for SQLite.

To inspect the content, navigate to Browse Data tab, expand Table dropdown menu, and select the desired table.

Figure 3 - DB Browser for SQLite

To inspect and/or edit database files on your Android device directly, use SQLite 3; adb to your Android device and run the following commands:

sqlite3 somefile

.dump

.tables

SELECT * FROM sometable;

.quit

Nuclei

Download mobile Nuclei templates:

git clone https://github.com/optiv/mobile-nuclei-templates ~/mobile-nuclei-templates

Decode an APK using Apktool.

Search for hardcoded sensitive data:

echo decoded | nuclei -t ~/mobile-nuclei-templates/Keys -o nuclei_keys_results.txt

cat nuclei_keys_results.txt | grep -Po '(?<=\]\ ).+' | sort -uf > nuclei_keys_results_sorted.txt

echo decoded | nuclei -t ~/mobile-nuclei-templates/Android -o nuclei_android_results.txt

cat nuclei_android_results.txt | grep -Po '(?<=\]\ ).+' | sort -uf > nuclei_android_results_sorted.txt

Backups

Create a backup of the whole Android device:

adb backup -system -apk -shared -all -f backup.ab

Create a backup of a specific app:

adb backup -nosystem -noapk -noshared -f backup.ab com.someapp.dev

App should not backup any sensitive data.

Restore from a backup:

adb restore backup.ab

Download the latest Android Backup Extrator, and repackage a backup:

java -jar abe.jar unpack backup.ab backup.tar

java -jar abe.jar pack backup.tar backup.ab

5. Deeplinks

Test /.well-known/assetlinks.json using developers.google.com/digital-asset-links/tools/generator.

To do.

6. Frida

Useful resources:

List processes:

frida-ps -Uai

frida-ps -Uai | grep -i 'keyword'

Get PID for a specified keyword:

frida-ps -Uai | grep -i 'keyword' | cut -d ' ' -f 1

Trace internal methods/calls:

frida-trace -U -p 1337

frida-trace -U -p 1337 -i 'recv*' -i 'send*'

Frida Scripts

Bypass SSL Pinning using android-ssl-pinning-bypass-2 script:

frida -U -no-pause -l android-ssl-pinning-bypass-2.js -f com.someapp.dev

frida -U -no-pause --codeshare ivan-sincek/android-ssl-pinning-bypass-2 -f com.someapp.dev

I prefer to use the built-in method in Objection.

For this Frida script to work, you need to push your Burp Proxy or ZAP certificate to a specific location with the specific name cacert.der:

adb push cacert.der /data/local/tmp/cacert.der

Bypass SSL Pinning using android-ssl-pinning-bypass script:

frida -U -no-pause -l android-ssl-pinning-bypass.js -f com.someapp.dev

frida -U -no-pause --codeshare ivan-sincek/android-ssl-pinning-bypass -f com.someapp.dev

I prefer to use the built-in method in Objection.

7. Objection

Useful resources:

github.com/sensepost/objection

Run:

objection -g com.someapp.dev explore

Run a Frida script in Objection:

import somescript.js

objection -g com.someapp.dev explore --startup-script somescript.js

Get environment variables:

env

List KeyStore:

android keystore list

Dump app's memory to a file:

memory dump all mem.dmp

Dump app's memory after e.g. 10 minutes of inactivity, then, check if sensitive data is still in the memory. See section 4. Inspect Files.

In case Objection detaches from the app, use the process ID to attach it back without restarting the app.

Search app's memory directly:

memory search 'somestring' --string

List classes and methods:

android hooking list classes

android hooking search classes com.someapp.dev
android hooking search classes 'keyword'

android hooking list class_methods 'someclass'
android hooking search methods com.someapp.dev 'someclass'

Hook on a class or method:

android hooking set return_value 'somemethod' false

Monitor the clipboard:

android clipboard monitor

Bypasses

Bypass a root detection:

android root disable --quiet

objection -g com.someapp.dev explore --startup-command 'android root disable --quiet'

Bypass SSL pinning:

android sslpinning disable --quiet

objection -g com.someapp.dev explore --startup-command 'android sslpinning disable --quiet'

Also, you can import Frida script.

8. Drozer

Connect to a remote agent:

drozer console connect --server 192.168.1.10

List modules and show module details:

list

run somemodule --help

List packages:

run app.package.list

run app.package.list -f 'keyword'

run app.package.backup

run app.package.debuggable

Show a package information:

run app.package.info -a com.someapp.dev

Show app's AndroidManifest.xml:

run app.package.manifest com.someapp.dev

In case Drozer cannot fetch the whole manifest file, decode an APK using Apktool and inspect the file manually.

Show app's attack surface:

run app.package.attacksurface com.someapp.dev

Activities

List exported activities and intent filters:

run app.activity.info -i -a com.someapp.dev

Start an activity:

run app.activity.start --help

run app.activity.start --component com.someapp.dev com.someapp.dev.SomeActivity

run app.activity.start --component com.someapp.dev com.someapp.dev.SomeActivity --action android.intent.action.SOMEACTION --data-uri somescheme://somehost --extra string someKey someValue

Drozer is not able to pass arrays, lists, objects, etc. to intent filters due to console interface limitations.

Providers

List exported and unexported content providers:

run app.provider.info -a com.someapp.dev

run app.provider.info -u -a com.someapp.dev

List, try to query, and do a vulnerability scan for all content providers' URIs:

run app.provider.finduri com.someapp.dev

run scanner.provider.finduris -a com.someapp.dev

run scanner.provider.injection -a com.someapp.dev

run scanner.provider.sqltables -a com.someapp.dev

run scanner.provider.traversal -a com.someapp.dev

9. Decompile an APK

Get the Java source code from an APK.

d2j-dex2jar + jadx gives the best results. But, it also gives a different directory structure, so you might want to decompile both, base.jar and base.apk.

Convert an APK to a JAR:

d2j-dex2jar base.apk -o base.jar

Decompile:

jadx -j $(grep -c 'processor' /proc/cpuinfo) -d /root/Desktop/source/ /root/Desktop/base.jar

Make sure to specify a full path to the output directory; otherwise, it will default to /usr/share/jadx/bin/ directory (i.e. to the root directory).

Make sure to specify a full path to the base.jar (preferred) or base.apk; otherwise, JADX might not recognize it.

To inspect the source code using GUI, run the following command and open either base.jar (preferred) or base.apk:

jadx-gui

To resolve java.lang.OutOfMemoryError issue, modify /usr/bin/d2j-dex2jar by increasing the heap size specified in -Xms and -Xmx parameters, for example:

java -Xms1024m -Xmx4096m -classpath "${_classpath}" "com.googlecode.dex2jar.tools.Dex2jarCmd" "$@"

10. Repackage an APK

Sometimes, for some reason, MobSF might not want to parse your APK; in such case, try to decode and repackage your APK, and then upload it again.

Decode

Get the SMALI source code from an APK. Convenient for quickly fetching and inspecting app's AndroidManifest.xml.

apktool decode base.apk -o decoded

Always inspect /decoded/res/values/values.xml for sensitive data.

Decode an APK without decoding the sources and resources:

apktool decode -r -s base.apk -o decoded

Repackage

Create a repackaged APK from the decoded directory:

apktool build -f decoded -o repackaged.apk

ZIP align all the files inside the repackaged APK:

zipalign -v 4 repackaged.apk

Code Sign

Generate a code signing certificate:

keytool -genkey -keyalg RSA -validity 365 -keysize 2048 -storetype PKCS12 -alias apk_rsa_priv -keystore apk_rsa_priv.key -storepass 12345678

Code sign the repackaged APK:

jarsigner -sigalg SHA256withRSA -digestalg SHA-256 -tsa http://timestamp.digicert.com -keystore apk_rsa_priv.key -storepass 12345678 repackaged.apk apk_rsa_priv

Verify the repackaged APK's code signature:

jarsigner -verify -certs repackaged.apk

11. Miscellaneous

Monitor the System Log

On your Kali Linux, run the following command:

adb logcat | grep 1337

Or, get the PID from a keyword:

keyword="keyword"; adb logcat | grep $(frida-ps -Uai | grep -i "${keyword}" | tr -s '[:blank:]' ' ' | cut -d ' ' -f 1)

Monitor File Changes

On your Kali Linux, download the latest fsmon version from GitHub, upload it to your Android device, give it necessary permissions, and run it:

adb push fsmon-and-arm /data/local/tmp/

adb shell su

chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/fsmon-and-arm

/data/local/tmp/fsmon-and-arm /data/data/com.someapp.dev/

Always look for created or cached files, images/screenshots, etc.

Sensitive files such as know your customer (KYC) and similar, should not persists in the app specific directories on the user device after the file upload.

Images/screenshots path:

cd /mnt/sdcard/DCIM
cd /storage/emulated/0/DCIM

cd /mnt/media_rw/3664-6132/DCIM
cd /storage/3664-6132/DCIM

12. Tips and Security Best Practices

Bypass any keyboard restriction by copying and pasting data into an input field.

Access tokens should be short lived, and if possible, invalidated on logout.

Don't forget to test widgets, push notifications, and Firebase.

Only if explicitly allowed, try flooding 3rd party APIs to cause possible monetary damage to the company, or denial-of-service (DoS) by exhausting the allowed quotas / limits.

App should not disclose sensitive data in the predictive text (due to incorrectly defined input field type), app switcher, and push notifications.

App should warn a user when taking a screenshot of sensitive data.

App should warn a user that it is trivial to bypass biometrics authentication if Android device is jailbroken.

Production app (i.e. build) should never be debuggable.
