Embodiment Construction

[0023] In order to more clearly illustrate the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention or the prior art, the accompanying drawings that need to be used in the description of the embodiments or the prior art will be briefly introduced below. The invention is exemplary and should not be construed as limiting the invention. The following description describes numerous specific details to facilitate an understanding of the present invention. However, in certain instances, well-known or conventional details are not described in order to satisfy the requirement of conciseness of the description.

[0024] Because the root authority is too powerful, the root authority on the Android platform is closed by default, and the user cannot directly open and close the root authority on the Android platform through the user control interface. The method of obtaining the root authority is mainly through the binary executable file su and the android application. Superuse...

Abstract

The present invention provides a method for root authortity management and control in an Android platform. The management and control method comprises: establishing and storing a rootagent executable file that is added with a package name of an application program allowed to be granted a root authority; an Android init process enabling a rootagent service corresponding to the rootagent executable file by reading a configuration file; before the application program applies for the root authority, judging whether a rootagent service process is running or not first; and the rootagent service process matching a process ID of the application program that submits an application with a process ID corresponding to the package name of the application program allowed to be granted the root authority in the rootagent service process, and if the matching is successful, then granting the application program, that submits the application, the root authority, or otherwise, rejecting. By using the method, the fact that only individual application is subjected to root authorization can be accurately limited, and at the same time, opening and closing operations of the root authority can be performed conveniently and quickly by setting system attributes.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the terminal field of the Android platform, in particular to a method for controlling root authority on the Android platform. Background technique [0002] The Android system is a Linux-based open source operating system released by Google. Like the Linux system, the Android system also has a super administrator root user. This user has the highest authority in the system and can operate on all objects, such as any process. Start and stop, you can clear redundant system applications, install or uninstall applications silently, monitor privacy behaviors, etc. Just because the root authority is so powerful and has so many system authorities, opening the root authority has a very large security risk. If it is obtained by malicious software, it may cause great unexpected losses to the user. Therefore, the software of Android mobile phone manufacturers generally Root privileges are disabled by default. However, for Android manufac...
