OWASP OMTG Hacking Playground Tool Project

The OMTG hacking playground consists of a vulnerable Android App that maps to the different test cases in the OWASP Mobile Testing Guide. An iOS will be available soon.

Description

The OWASP Mobile Testing Guide (OMTG) will be similar to the OWASP Web Application Testing Guide, but will have specific test cases only applicable to mobile platforms. In order to give practical guidance to developers, security researches and penetration testers, a hacking playground was created that consists of different mobile App’s that contain different vulnerabilities that map to the OMTG test cases. Every test case described in the OMTG will therefore be implemented in an Android and iOS App. This has two advantages:

  • A developer can identify vulnerable code in the provided App’s and can see the implications and risks if such patterns are used and can look for the best practices in the OMTG to mitigate the vulnerabilities.
  • Penetration testers / security researchers can identify bad practices, dangerous methods and classes they should look first on when assessing a Mobile App and can gain more knowledge through the information provided in the OMTG.
