Abstract

The invention discloses an application rewriting method for detecting Android privilege elevation attack. The method comprises the steps: performing decompilation on an Android application uploaded by a user to generate an intermediate file and an application configuration file; inserting a call-link building code to the generated intermediate file, so that a call link is automatically built during the running of the application; inserting a call-link acquiring code to the generated intermediate file, so that the call link sent by a calling program is automatically acquired during the running of the application; inserting a detection code to the generated intermediate file, so that whether the privilege elevation attack exists or not is automatically judged when the application accesses sensitive resources of a system; packaging the modified intermediate file and the application configuration file into a new application and signing the generated application, so that the application can be installed into mobile equipment. By adopting the application rewriting method, Android system source codes can be effectively prevented from being modified, so the method can be more easily adopted by common users.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the fields of computer security and mobile security, and more specifically relates to an application program rewriting method and system for detecting Android privilege escalation attacks. Background technique [0002] In recent years, smart terminals have been widely popularized around the world, especially the smart terminals represented by Google's Android system and Apple's iOS system. According to Gartner's report, in the first quarter of 2012, mobile phones with Android and iOS systems accounted for 79% of the total global smart phone market, of which mobile phones with Android system accounted for 56%. Due to the high market share of Android and the open source code of the system, this patent is aimed at mobile terminals with the Android system which are more popular at present. With the popularity of Android smart terminals, malicious codes targeting Android systems are also increasing. According to the latest Kaspersk...
