scan_apk_for_debuggable

A script to scan apk files for the debuggable flag and order them by their shared uid if there is

How to use this script:

1 Install apktool (not needed for the aapt only version)

2 Install aapt

3 You can use the script, but how does it work? It has three modes:

1. ./script folder_with_apks [enter]

this is the simple scan, and the end you will get a summary on the terminal only

2. ./script folder_with_apks text_file.txt [enter]

this type of scan is like the simple scan but will generate a report of the scan, think of it like doing >> file.txt at the end of a command

3. ./script folder_with_apks --report-debuggable-only text_file.txt [enter]

this type of scan will generate a report with only the debuggable apps ordered by their shared uid, useful if you don't want the full output of the command but only the informations of the apps

Added a version (aapt-only) that doesn't decompile and instead parses the manifest with aapt, it should in theory never fail at checking apks, you can try it in case apktool one fails for you
