kwetza – Python script to inject existing Android applications with a Meterpreter payload
Kwetza is a tool created by Chris Le Roy (@brompwnie) chris@sensepost.com that allows you to infect an existing Android application with a Meterpreter payload.
Kwetza infects an existing Android application with either custom or default payload templates to avoid detection by antivirus. Kwetza allows you to infect Android applications using the target application’s default permissions or inject additional permissions to gain additional functionality.
Installing Kwetza
Firstly get the code:
git clone https://github.com/sensepost/kwetza.git
Kwetza is written in Python and requires BeautifulSoup which can be installed using Pip:
pip install beautifulsoup4
Kwetza requires Apktool to be install and accessible via your PATH. This can be setup using the install instructions located here: https://ibotpeaches.github.io/Apktool/install
