Mobile Application Penetration Testing

Blacklock performs active reconnaissance andapplication analysis to understand mobile functionality, entry points, exitpoints, API interactions and data flows.

Testing includes reviewing the mobile application package,analysing local storage, identifying hard-coded secrets, assessing third-partycomponents, checking insecure configurations and reviewing how the applicationhandles sensitive data.

Our consultants also inspect network traffic, APIrequests, authentication flows and application behaviour to identifyvulnerabilities across the mobile, API and network layers.

Blacklock performs automated checks across MCP inputs,tool parameters, schemas, API routes and agent workflows.

Testing may include tool schema fuzzing, parametertampering, injection checks, authentication and authorisation review, secretexposure checks, rate limit testing, context leakage testing and unsafe toolinvocation attempts.

Blacklock consultants manually test MCP implementationsfor exploitable weaknesses. Testing includes tool poisoning, command injection,SSRF via URL-accepting tools, scope creep, unauthorised tool invocation,excessive agency, context injection, token misuse and privilege escalation.

Where MCP is used by AI agents, we also test whethermalicious prompts, documents or tool outputs can manipulate the agent intoinvoking sensitive tools or bypassing human approval steps.

Mobile applications often rely on API endpoints, cloudservices and supporting infrastructure. Blacklock can support ongoing securityassurance by continuously scanning API endpoints, web services and relatedinfrastructure used by the mobile application.

Recurring scanning helps identify new vulnerabilities asmobile apps, APIs and backend services change. Results can be reviewed in theBlacklock dashboard and used to support remediation, governance, compliance andrelease readiness.
