Bypass Android Applications Debug and Root Detection via debugger.

<p>I was going through OWASP&nbsp;<a href="https://github.com/OWASP/owasp-mastg/releases" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank"><em>MASTG</em></a>&nbsp;for Android/iOS pentesting techniques. For learning Android/iOS pentesting, one can refer to this e-book. While reading, I came up with debug techniques to bypass root detection or modify the hidden variables.</p> <h1><strong><em>What is Debugging and how it helps in security testing?</em></strong></h1> <p>Debugging means finding and fixing errors, commonly known as &ldquo;bugs,&rdquo; in software, systems, or mobile apps to make them work correctly. It is a tiring process, needs focus and requires a great amount of patience. For developers, a normal bug which affects other lines of code, uses debuggers to stop the execution of the program, analyze variable values, execute line of code step by step, set breakpoints and can modify the values during runtime. Hence, it helps to solve the error or bug that affects other lines of code. Now, you can think this can bring malicious practices from the perspective of hackers.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/@shubhamsonani/hacking-with-precision-bypass-techniques-via-debugger-in-android-apps-27fd562b2cc0"><strong>Visit Now</strong></a></p>
