Andorid Mobile App Assessment - Frida environment

This is how to implement test environment for Frida.

Below is my test environment for frida-server and frida-client:

|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

|    |-------------------------|            |------------------------------------|  |

|    | Android-Studio       |             | Ubuntu on VM Player           |  |

|    |           AVD              | <--->   | IP: 192.168.172.129 (NAT)    |  |

|    | IP: 10.0.2.2  (NAT) |            |------------------------------------|  |

|    |-------------------------|                                                             |

|                                                                                 Windows 10 |

|                                                                             192.168.1.101 |

|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

That's a simple test environment.

The frida-server is running on Android-Stuido AVD, and the frida-tools is running on the Ubuntu server.

Windows & AVD
1. copy the frida-server file to Android (/data/local/tmp).
1.1. adb.exe push /<your-path of frida-server file> /data/local/tmp/

2. go adb shell and run frida on AVD
2.1. adb shell; cd /data/local/tmp; chmod 755 ./frida-server; ./frida-server

Windows

3. adb forward port

3.1. .\adb.exe forward tcp:27042 tcp:27042

3.2. .\adb.exe forward tcp:27043 tcp:27043

3.3. then, it will forward the ports, but it listen for 127.0.0.1 only. 

4.Windws forward port

4.1. netsh interface portproxy add v4tov4 listenport=27044 listenaddress=0.0.0.0 connectport=27042 connectaddress=127.0.0.1

4.2. netsh interface portproxy add v4tov4 listenport=27045 listenaddress=0.0.0.0 connectport=27043 connectaddress=127.0.0.1

4.3. netsh interface portproxy show all

4.4. then, it will forward the ports, but it listen for 0.0.0.0.
