AndroBomb

AndroBomb

DOI

In this repository, we host AndroBomb, a tool to automatically infect Android apps with logic bombs.

The tool is not publicly available to not encourage malware development. AndroBomb is only available to authenticated and identified researchers who can ask for access at: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.5907924

DISCLAIMER: This tool is for research purposes only. The authors are not responsible for any misuse of this tool or any malicious intention on the part of a user.

Getting started

Installing the tool

To install the tool, one just has to go into cloned repository and run these maven commands :

cd AndroBomb
mvn clean install:install-file -Dfile=libs/soot-infoflow-android-2.9.0.jar -DgroupId=de.tud.sse -DartifactId=soot-infoflow-android -Dversion=2.9.0 -Dpackaging=jar
mvn clean install:install-file -Dfile=libs/ManifestEditor-1.0.2.jar -DgroupId=com.wind.meditor -DartifactId=manifesteditor -Dversion=1.0.2 -Dpackaging=jar
mvn clean install

Issues

If you stumble upon a stack overflow error while building AndroBomb, increase memory available with this command:

export MAVEN_OPTS=-Xss32m

Then, try to rebuild.

Usage

java -jar AndroBomb/target/AndroBomb-1.0-jar-with-dependencies.jar options

Options:

  • -a : The path to the APK to process.
  • -p : The path to Android platforms folder.
  • -o : The output directory
  • -t : The trigger type to inject
  • -g : The guarded coded type to inject
  • -z : The zipalign binary path
  • -s : The apksigner binary path
  • -h : Print help message

Trigger types supported

  • time, location, sms, network, build, camera, addition, music, is_screen_on, is_screen_off

Guarded code types supported

  • return, sms_imei, stop_wifi, write_string, write_phone_number, set_text, sms_string, http_location, set_text_reflection, exit, native_log_string, native_log_model, native_write_phone_number, native_phone_number_network

Example

To generate an infected version of PATH_TO_APK to OUTPUT_DIRECTORY/ which will test if the device is being executed at a given time/date to trigger phone number theft, send it to a piece of native code which will write it to a file in the download directory, use the following command:

java -jar AndroBomb/target/AndroBomb-0.1-jar-with-dependencies.jar \
-p PATH_TO_PLATFORMS \
-a PATH_TO_APK \
-o OUTPUT_DIRECTORY \
-t time \
-g native_write_phone_number \
-s PATH_TO_APKSIGNER \
-z PATH_TO_ZIPALIGN
