API Reference: Thick Client Penetration Testing

Analysis Tools

Tool Purpose Target
dnSpy .NET decompilation and debugging .NET Framework/Core apps
ILSpy .NET decompilation (read-only) .NET assemblies
JD-GUI / JADX Java decompilation JAR/APK files
Ghidra / IDA Pro Native binary reverse engineering C/C++ executables
Procmon File/registry/network activity monitoring Any Windows app
Process Hacker Process inspection, memory, DLLs Running processes
Burp Suite HTTP/HTTPS traffic interception Client-server communication
Echo Mirage TCP/UDP traffic interception Non-HTTP protocols
Frida Dynamic instrumentation Any platform

Static Analysis Targets

Target Search Pattern Risk
Hardcoded credentials password, secret, apikey in strings Critical
Connection strings jdbc:, Server=, mongodb:// Critical
SQL queries SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE Medium
URLs and endpoints http://, https:// Info
Disabled SSL validation ServerCertificateValidationCallback High

DLL Hijacking Detection

Step Tool Action
1 Procmon Filter: Result = NAME NOT FOUND, Path ends with .dll
2 Check Verify if DLL search path includes writable directories
3 Validate Test with benign DLL in writable directory

Local Storage Locations

Location Type Risk
%APPDATA%\<app> Config, SQLite Credential storage
%LOCALAPPDATA%\<app> Cache, logs Data leakage
HKCU\Software\<app> Registry settings Stored credentials
App install directory Config files Hardcoded secrets

Python Libraries

Library Version Purpose
sqlite3 stdlib Audit local SQLite databases
re stdlib Pattern matching for credentials/URLs
subprocess stdlib Execute system analysis tools
pathlib stdlib File system traversal
