![]() ![]() ![]() Then, modify the Wi-Fi settings and add the MITM proxy address. Next, enable Wi-Fi on the Android device. On Debian based (Ubuntu, Kali, etc) Linux, you can install the software using the following syntax. For this article, I will use a Linux machine. It can be installed on both Linux and Windows. Network Setupįor the MITM proxy, we will be using mitmproxy. The MITM proxy will then forward this response back to the phone over the Wi-Fi network. As long as the client certificates have been installed on the Android phone, the MITM proxy will be able to decrypt the HTTPS traffic sent from the Android device.Īs for the response from the destination server, it will be sent to the MITM proxy. The MITM proxy will then forward the HTTP/HTTPS request from the phone to the required destination server (S). All HTTP/HTTPS traffic from the phone will pass through the MITM proxy. The phone (P) is configured to use the MITM proxy (M) via a Wi-Fi network (AP). In short, the following diagram explains the traffic flow with a MITM proxy. If you do not have a rooted Android device, and if you want to sniff HTTP/HTTPS traffic, you will need to use a MITM (man-in-the-middle) proxy that is capable of sniffing SSL traffic. ![]() But, even with such an app, you will not be able to decode HTTPS traffic. If you have a rooted Android device, you can sniff all the HTTP and HTTPS traffic using Shark for Root, a tcpdump based sniffing app. Objective: Sniff and intercept HTTP/HTTPS traffic sent from an Android device (phone or tablet) that does not have root access.
