Installing Mobile Tool

MOBSF in Linux

Hi Everyone!! so today I am gonna take you to the most challenges faced while installing the tool like MOBSF.

Basically, The Mobile Security Framework (MobSF) is an open-source framework capable of performing end-to-end security testing of mobile applications. MobSF can be used for security analysis of Android and iOS applications. It supports APK and IPA binaries, as well as zipped source code.

Before the tool, please make sure requirements are met…

So let us start with installation mobsf in Kali Linux.

Requirements:

• Python 3.6
• Oracle JDK 1.7 or above.

Installation:

Download the mobsf — git clone https://github.com/MobSF/Mobile-Security-Framework-MobSF.git

Downloading Mobsf

Before running the setup, run

pip3 install -r requirements.txt

It will download and install all the requirements for mobsf.

Requirements download and install

Once all the requirements are downloaded, simply run the ./setup.sh, as we using kali Linux we will run the bash file.

Running setup

To view the report in mobsf or download the file in pdf format we will install wkhtmltopdf. Somehow it will not install with the requirements. If throws error, simple run

pip3 install wkhtmltopdf

installing wkhtmltopdf

once all the requirements and setup are installed successfully, run ./run.sh to execute our mobsf. It will listen to URL http:0.0.0.0:8000

Running mobsf

YEAH!!! successfully installed and ready for action.. Simply drag and drop the apk .
