SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

iOS security assessments often require specialized techniques; this Skill provides an expert playbook for systematic testing across jailbreak vs non-jailbreak scenarios, keychain access, URL scheme hijacking, and Universal Links misconfigurations, along with Frida/Objection-based runtime hooks, binary protections checks, and data storage reviews.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Frida/Objection runtime techniques for on-device analysis and manipulation of apps.
  • Keychain extraction guidance and safe evaluation of various keychain protection classes.
  • URL scheme hijacking and Universal Links misconfiguration assessment to identify interception risks.
  • Binary protections analysis including PIE, stack canaries, ARC, and encryption status checks.
  • Data storage review across NSUserDefaults, SQLite/Core Data, Cookies, and app sandboxed data.
  • End-to-end iOS security workflow for authorized assessments (lab setup, tooling, and reporting).

Quick Start

Load IOS_RUNTIME_TRICKS.md for Frida recipes and begin with the jailbreak vs non-jailbreak workflow.

FAQPage Schema
How do I bypass SSL pinning on an iOS app using Frida?

iOS pentesting covers both jailbroken and non-jailbroken methodologies, allowing you to evaluate app security controls like keychain access, URL scheme hijacking, and Universal Links misconfigurations across different device states.

How do I extract data from the iOS keychain during a security assessment?

You can extract iOS keychain data by evaluating various protection classes using Objection and Frida runtime hooks. This Skill provides guidance on safe keychain extraction and evaluating different protection classes.

Can I test for URL scheme hijacking and Universal Links misconfigurations on iOS?

Yes, you can assess URL scheme hijacking and Universal Links misconfigurations to identify interception risks. This Skill provides systematic evaluation methods to identify these specific iOS app vulnerabilities.

Does iOS pentesting require a jailbroken device?

iOS pentesting does not strictly require a jailbroken device. This Skill covers methodologies for both jailbreak and non-jailbreak scenarios, though familiarity with Frida and Objection tooling is required for runtime hooks.

What binary protections should I check during an iOS app pentest?

During an iOS app pentest, you should check binary protections including PIE, stack canaries, ARC, and encryption status. This Skill provides analysis techniques to evaluate these binary security controls.
