[Community Training] Low-Level iOS Hacking - an introduction
Ever wondered what's going on inside your iPhone?
It's an incredible can of worms, that Etum/Agnes would love to explore with you!
We'll crack open how iOS and its apps actually work under the hood, then get you hands-on with Arm64 and LLDB ( the real tools that jailbreakers and security researchers use) before setting you loose on live disassembly and debugging. Bring questions, a linux laptop and a can do attitude!
This workshop is beginner-friendly, no experience required (but if you've touched a terminal before, you'll feel right at home)
Workshop outline:
- Introductory talk about how iOS/iOS apps work "under the hood".
- Arm64 and LLDB basics, follow-along.
- Hands-on simple disassembly and LLDB debugging.
- Post-workshop reversing material
- ... Probably low-level iOS tangents if you poke Etum enough about it
Materials:
Bring your own laptop. (Mac or Linux)
For the hands-on section, we will supply as many Jailbroken iOS devices as we have available; otherwise, go ahead and bring a macbook with vphone-CLI [https://github.com/Lakr233/vphone-cli] installed (Requires AMFI turned off over csrutil)
