Cannot log the keys from an app on android device, Galaxy A54 5G

[tomy1989]

I am trying to use the friTap.py tool for monitoring SSL/TLS traffic on my Android device. I've executed the script with the following command:

./friTap.py -m -k keys.log -v -s com.google.android.youtube

Upon running the script, I observed the following output:

Start logging
Press Ctrl+C to stop logging
spawning com.google.android.youtube
[*] Running Script on Android
[*] libssl.so found & will be hooked on Android!
[*] Android dynamic loader hooked.
[*] Logging keylog file to keys.log
[*] Blocking provider registration of Ssl_Guard

However, I am facing two main issues:

1. No Logging: Even though the script indicates that logging has started, I am not seeing any entries in the keys.log file.
2. Blocking Ssl_Guard: The output mentions "Blocking provider registration of Ssl_Guard," but there is no additional information or log entries related to this action.

Could you please assist me in understanding what might be going wrong, and how to resolve these issues?

Hi,

thx for opening this issue. In order to reproduce the error we have some further questions.

• On what Android version are you running fritap?
• Can you provide the output of ./friTap.py -m -k keys.log -v -do -s com.google.android.youtube

I have the same problem on an emulator "rooted" through magisk so I can confirm that this happens. Same outputs as @tomy1989 Mine is configured like this : Name: PIXEL6_31_PLAYSTORE Device: pixel_6 (Google) Target: Google Play (Google Inc.) Based on: Android 12.0 ("S") Tag/ABI: google_apis_playstore/x86_64 Sdcard: 512 MB

I'm still not sure where this problem is coming from. Does this only happen when running the Youtube app or also with other apps?

Furthermore ow does your output looks like when enabling spawn gating: python3 ./friTap.py -m -k keys.log -v -do --enable_spawn_gating -s com.google.android.youtube

In my case frida gets a timeout.
