An Empirical Study On Deterministic Collusive Attack Using Inter Component Communication In Android Applications, Tanzeer Hossain
An Empirical Study On Deterministic Collusive Attack Using Inter Component Communication In Android Applications, Tanzeer Hossain
Wayne State University Theses
Security threats using intent based inter component communication (ICC) channels in Android are under constant scrutiny of software engineering researchers. Though prior research provides empirical evidence on the existence of collusive communication channels in popular android apps, little is known about developers’willful involvement and motivation to exploit these channels.To shed light on this matter, in this paper we devised a novel methodology to deterministically identify developers’ involvement in establishing collusive inter app communication channels. We incorporate static analysis and relational database technology to discover sensitive collusive channels and domain knowledge of the Android SDK to build a model to identify …
