DexProtector 16.1.31
DexProtector is now fully compatible with Android 17 Beta 3.
The latest version of DexProtector comes with full support for Android 17 Beta 3, improved methods for safeguarding eKYC processes, and extended support for payment app compliance.
Key enhancements in this version include:
- Support for the Resource Encryption mechanism for Android 17 Beta 3
- New checks for Android system frameworks for tampering/injection
- New detection for Android device settings allowing connections via Android Debug - Bridge (ADB) via USB or WiFi interfaces
- Mechanisms to prevent attacks using remote Android devices for key attestation
- Improved detection of cloud-based Android emulators
Other enhancements we’ve made specifically for the Android Platform are:
- Support for Android Gradle Plugin 9
- Additional support for integrating protected AARs into apps as individual Dynamic Feature Modules (DFM).
Dynamic Feature Delivery for Google Play is a powerful capability that allows developers to dynamically load additional functionality at runtime. This is particularly important for payment SDKs, which often support multiple payment schemes, while end users typically require only a subset of them for their day-to-day usage.
From a security perspective, this approach introduces additional considerations. One example is that dynamically delivered modules are loaded into the user-space file system, which increases the attack surface and requires enhanced integrity verification and runtime protections to make sure that modules have not been tampered with or replaced.
To enable our customers to safely adopt this architecture, we’ve introduced support for Dynamic Feature Modules for Android SDKs protected with DexProtector. This allows developers to benefit from modular delivery while also maintaining strong application integrity, secure execution, and compliance with payment scheme security requirements.
As always, we’ve also implemented improvements for the iOS Platform. These include:
- Additional support for protecting iOS binaries linked with the OSS ld64.lld linker
- Support for cases where multiple frameworks protected by DexProtector are integrated within a protected app
- A new check for the Dopamine jailbreak
