Quick Security Cheat Sheet

Commands for security researchers
Check Device Architecture Determine which Frida Server architecture binary to download (arm64, x86, etc.).
adb shell getprop ro.product.cpu.abi
Push Frida Server to Device Upload the Frida server binary to a writable, executable Android directory.
adb push frida-server /data/local/tmp/
Start Frida Server (Root) Change permissions and run Frida Server as a background daemon process.
adb shell "chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/frida-server && /data/local/tmp/frida-server &"
Spawn App and Inject Hook Script Launch the application package and attach a javascript instrumentation script.
frida -U -f com.target.app -l bypass.js
List Installed Applications Retrieve a list of all user/system apps and their bundle identifiers on connected iOS.
frida-ps -Uai
Inject Script to iOS Process Force spawn an iOS app bundle and inject your ssl-pinning bypass script.
frida -U -f com.apple.AppStore -l hook.js
Convert DER Certificate to PEM Format Convert standard Burp Suite or custom proxy certificate formats.
openssl x509 -inform DER -in cacert.der -out cacert.pem
Find Subject Hash (Android Trust Store naming) Get the 8-character subject hash value required for Android system cert files.
openssl x509 -inform PEM -subject_hash_old -in cacert.pem
