YAASA

YAASA (Yet Another APK Static Analyzer) is a framework for having fun with analyzing APKs.
The project is using the tools below and is built on Django framework:

• APKTool: A tool for reverse engineering Android apk files
• AxmlParserPY: Python AxmlParser
• PlagueScanner: Open source multiple AV scanner framework

You can add new functions in analyze/libs/threads.py.

Usage of the app is very easy. You can start the YAASA with python manage.py runserver and open 127.0.0.1:8000 on your browser. After, you can upload your apk file and let the framework to start analysis process in background.

Anti-Virus

For take power of Anti-Viruses, you must run some virtual machines with Anti-Virus installed on them. For more information you can see PlagueScanner page. Some agents need to be modified to provide best result of scanning. We modified BitDefender agent for that purpose.

You can run these commands to install the framework:

git clone https://github.com/mohammadnassiri/YAASA.git
cd YAASA
pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Config

.env file must be configured before using the YAASA framework. If you use a MySQL database, connection variables should be set in this file. Also set a secret_key which is used by django itself.
