Basic HTTP Request

HTTP is the abbreviation of Hypertext Transfer Protocol and is used to transfer data between clients and servers, i.e. your Browser and a website or in this case the Android app and our local server.

Setup

1. In the OWASP VM open the folder ~/OWASP/Resources/http/.
2. Start the python file in the folder with following command sudo python http.py.
3. This will start a lightweight HTTP server.
4. Configure the iptablesrules as following via the command adb shell via the OWASP VM or press Alt + F1 in the Android VM:
5. iptables.proxy (Please interchange the IP address with the one of the OWASP VM):

iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -o eth0 -p tcp --dport 80 -j DNAT --to 10.13.13.102:8080

3. Start Burp Suite in the OWASP VM.
