README
# Description
**MEDUSA** is an extensible and modularized framework that automates processes and techniques practiced during the **dynamic analysis** **of Android and iOS Applications**.
# Installation
1. Clone this repo
2. Navigate to the medusa's directory
3. Run the following command:
```
$ pip install -r requirements.txt --upgrade
```
## Known issues
In macOS installation you may encounter the following issue:
>Readline features including tab completion have been disabled because
no supported version of readline was found. To resolve this, install
pyreadline3 on Windows or gnureadline on Linux/Mac.
You can resolve this by installing python's gnureadline:
```
pip install gnureadline
```
## Using docker
You can find the docker file in the medusa/ directory.
1. Build with
```
$ docker build -t medusa:tag1 ./
```
2. Run with
```
$ docker run --name medusa --net=host --rm -it medusa:tag1
```
3. Run adbd in tcp/ip mode in your physical device or emulator
```
$ adb tcpip 5555
```
4. Connect to from the image to your device using:
```
root@docker# adb connect device_ip:5555
```
**System requirements:**
- Linux or macOS (currently medusa doesn't support windows)
- Python 3 (Use the latest python release and not the one shipped with macOS to avoid issues with using libedit instead of GNU's readline)
- Rooted device or emulator
- adb
- FRIDA server (running on the mobile device)
# Usage

Medusa consists of two main scripts: **medusa.py** and **mango.py**:
## Using medusa.py
The main idea behind MEDUSA is to be able to add or remove hooks for Java or Native methods in a large scale while keeping the process simple and effective. MEDUSA has **more than** **90** modules which can be combined, each one of them dedicated to a set of tasks. Indicatively, some of these tasks include:
- SSL pinning bypass
- UI restriction bypass (e.g. Flag secure, button enable)
- Class enumeration
- Monitoring of:
- Encryption process (keys, IVs, data to be encrypted)
- Intents
- Http communications
- Websockets
- Webview events
- File operations
- Database interactions
- Bluetooth operations
- Clipboard
- Monitoring of API calls used by malware applications, such as:
- Spyware
- Click Fraud
- Toll Fraud
- Sms Fraud
Furthermore, you can intercept Java or Native methods that belong to 3rd party apps or create complex frida modules with just few simple commands.
## Using mango.py
Mango is medusa's twin brother which can be used to:
- Parse and analyse the Android manifest
- Enumerate an application's attack entry points (exported activities, deeplinks, services etc.)
- Keep track of all your analysed applications
- Automate boring processes like:
- Set up a MITM
- Patching
- Wrap adb commands
- Set/View/Reset the device's proxy configuration
...and many many more
# Updates:
### (12/2022) Using the translator script:
1. Replace the default google_trans_new.py of you google_trans_new python package with the one from the utils/google_trans_new.py
2. Import it with medusa>use helpers/translator
