A comprehensive cheat sheet and tool collection for mobile application penetration testing, mapped to OWASP Mobile Top 10 risks.
The Mobile Application Penetration Testing Cheat Sheet is a curated collection of tools, commands, and methodologies for security professionals testing Android and iOS applications. It provides structured guidance on reverse engineering, dynamic analysis, network testing, and bypassing security controls like SSL pinning. The resource is mapped to the OWASP Mobile Top 10 to help testers systematically identify common vulnerabilities.
Mobile application penetration testers, security researchers, and developers focused on identifying and mitigating security flaws in Android and iOS apps. It's also valuable for students and professionals learning mobile security testing techniques.
It consolidates scattered tools and techniques into a single, organized reference, saving time and ensuring comprehensive coverage during assessments. Unlike generic guides, it offers platform-specific commands, real-world tool examples, and alignment with industry-standard risk frameworks.
The Mobile App Pentest cheat sheet was created to provide concise collection of high value information on specific mobile application penetration testing topics.
Open-Awesome is built by the community, for the community. Submit a project, suggest an awesome list, or help improve the catalog on GitHub.
Provides an extensive list of tools like APKTool, Frida, and Burp Suite with specific usage commands, such as `apktool d <apk file>` for disassembling Android APKs.
Aligns resources and methodologies with the OWASP Mobile Top 10 risk framework, ensuring systematic coverage of common vulnerabilities during assessments.
Offers dedicated guidance for circumventing security controls like SSL pinning and root detection, including Frida CodeShare commands for runtime manipulation.
Includes links to intentionally vulnerable apps like InsecureBankv2 and DVIA for hands-on practice in safe, realistic testing scenarios.
The README does not indicate update frequency, risking obsolescence with new mobile OS versions and tool changes, leaving users to verify compatibility independently.
Assumes prior knowledge of command-line tools and reverse engineering, offering dense lists without step-by-step tutorials or troubleshooting guidance for beginners.
Focuses on general techniques but does not address vulnerabilities unique to hybrid frameworks like React Native or Flutter, requiring supplemental resources.
