/************************************************************************************************** * * Once we have captured traffic (once it's being sent to our proxy port) the next step is * to ensure any clients using TLS (HTTPS) trust our CA certificate, to allow us to intercept * encrypted connections successfully. * * This script does this, by defining overrides to hook BoringSSL (used by iOS 11+) and Cronet * (the Chromium network stack, used by some Android apps including TikTok). This is the primary * certificate trust mechanism for iOS, and only a niche addition for Android edge cases. * * The hooks defined here ensure that normal certificate validation is skipped, and instead any * TLS connection using our trusted CA is always trusted. In general use this disables both * normal & certificate-pinned TLS/HTTPS validation, so that all connections which use your CA * should always succeed. * * This does not completely disable TLS validation, but it does significantly relax it - it's * intended for use with the other scripts in this repo that ensure all traffic is routed directly * to your MitM proxy (generally on your local network). You probably don't want to use this for * any sensitive traffic sent over public/untrusted networks - it is difficult to intercept, and * any attacker would need a copy of the CA certificate you're using, but by its nature as a messy * hook around TLS internals it's probably not 100% secure. * * Since iOS 11 (2017) Apple has used BoringSSL internally to handle all TLS. This code * hooks low-level BoringSSL calls, to override all custom certificate validation completely. * https://nabla-c0d3.github.io/blog/2019/05/18/ssl-kill-switch-for-ios12/ to the general concept, * but note that this script goes further - reimplementing basic TLS cert validation, rather than * just returning OK blindly for all connections. * * Source available at https://github.com/httptoolkit/frida-interception-and-unpinning/ * SPDX-License-Identifier: AGPL-3.0-or-later * SPDX-FileCopyrightText: Tim Perry * *************************************************************************************************/ const TARGET_LIBS = [ { name: 'libboringssl.dylib', hooked: false }, // iOS primary TLS implementation { name: 'libsscronet.so', hooked: false }, // Cronet on Android { name: 'boringssl', hooked: false }, // Bundled by some apps e.g. TikTok on iOS { name: 'libssl.so', hooked: false }, // Native OpenSSL in Android ]; TARGET_LIBS.forEach((targetLib) => { waitForModule(targetLib.name, (targetModule) => { patchTargetLib(targetModule, targetLib.name); targetLib.hooked = true; }); if ( targetLib.name === 'libboringssl.dylib' && Process.platform === 'darwin' && !targetLib.hooked ) { // On iOS, we expect this to always work immediately, so print a warning if we // ever have to skip this TLS patching process. console.log(`\n !!! --- Could not load ${targetLib.name} to hook TLS --- !!!`); } }); function patchTargetLib(targetModule, targetName) { // Get the peer certificates from an SSL pointer.
