OWASP Top 10 for Mobile Apps: M9 – Reverse Engineering

by

Reverse engineering is the process of analysing a system or software to understand its components, functionality, and architecture. In the context of mobile apps, reverse engineering typically involves deconstructing an app’s compiled code to reveal its source code, data structures, and logic. The goal may be to identify vulnerabilities, extract sensitive data, or alter the app’s behaviour for malicious purposes.

OWASP Top 10 for Mobile Apps: M8 – Code Tampering

by

Code tampering occurs when an attacker manipulates or alters the source code, binaries, or execution flow of a mobile application. This tampering can take various forms, including modifying the code to bypass security checks, reverse engineering to steal intellectual property, or injecting malicious code to steal sensitive data. Mobile apps, which often handle sensitive information like personal data, payment details, and corporate data, are prime targets for these attacks.
