Mobile Security Framework (MobSF)

Inspect mobile application packages with static analysis and supported-device dynamic testing, including runtime behavior and network traffic, through a web interface and APIs.

Requirements and limitations

  • The documented container setup recommends Docker 20.10+; dynamic analysis additionally needs a supported device or emulator accessible from the container.
  • Android dynamic analysis is documented for rooted Android 4.1–11, up to API 30; Android 12+ is not supported by that workflow.
  • iOS dynamic analysis uses Corellium or a jailbroken device; the physical-device route is marked beta.
