The Design and Development of the Vulnerability Detection System of Android Platform

Huimin Dong

Abstract


With the share of Android market increasing continuously, the Android mobile terminal provides convenience for the users. At the same time, it is encountering more and more secure challenges and threats, which has a serious threat to the safe use of users. Although Android has already a good security mechanism to ensure the safe use of the users, in the interest of huge commercial interests, a large number of attackers attack Android users in a variety of ways because of vulnerabilities of system and software. Even though the system module and access control system has been designed by Android, the attacker can still fight with the vulnerabilities of system or third party bugs, which has good for making illegal use some of its application beyond the permission function. It not only has a greater security threat, but also has certain concealment. The present study analyzes and innovates previous researches, put forward a new communication hole detection method based on controlling flow detection and Android permission sensitive dictionary matching, and on this basis, completed the high degree of automation, high detection efficiency design and development of test software.
