An apk automatic trigger tool

Abstract

The present invention provides an APK automatic triggering tool. The APK automatic triggering tool comprises three parts: an APK analysis preprocessing module, an APK automatic installation and starting module and an APK automated interaction module. The APK analysis preprocessing module automatically analyzes and acquires the MainActivity, the PackageName, the Activity and other information of the APK to prepare for the APK automated interaction; the APK automatic installation and starting module automatically installs the target APK to a simulator and automatically starts the APK in the simulator; and the APK automated interaction module automatically triggers all components in the APK based on the idea of deep traversal. According to the APK automatic triggering tool disclosed by the present invention, the APK can be automatically installed and started, and after the APK is started to run, all components in the screen can be acquired in real time, different UI interfaces and different components can be identified, and real users can be simulated to carry out corresponding interactions on different components, so that malicious codes can be triggered and the malicious APK can beexposed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of Android application program automation interaction, and in particular relates to an APK automatic trigger tool. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of science and technology, the market share of smart phones has risen rapidly, and the Android system has been favored by many mobile phone manufacturers and software manufacturers since its release. While Android smartphones bring many convenient functions to people, they also bring great security risks. However, most malicious APKs need to interact with the user to exhibit malicious behavior. In order to trigger the malicious behavior of the APK, expose the characteristics of the APK before using it, and protect the security of the user's mobile phone, an effective APK automatic triggering tool is needed. [0003] Monkey is an automated testing tool that comes with the Android system. It can generate a specified number of random events...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

In practice, it is difficult to obtain the source code of APK. Even with decompilation tools, some source codes have been obfuscated, making it difficult to analyze effectively

[0006] 2. Need to modify the Android source code

The Android version is different, there will be problems in compatibility after the source code is modified, and many APKs cannot run normally in the Android system with the modified source code

[0007] 3. The string cannot be generated according to the requirements

Many input components need to input a string with a suitable format to proceed to the next step, and the existing tools either do not generate a string, or generate meaningless random strings, which cannot meet the requirements
