CODE INJECTION ON ANDROID WITHOUT PTRACE

Summary from the TLDR InfoSec newsletter

This post describes a project, inspired by linux_injector, for injecting code into a process on Android without the use of ptrace. The injector locates a function in /proc/mem to overwrite and then utilizes a multistage shell code injector to map memory and inject to it. The post goes through the process of developing the shell code and the injector in Rust.
