Sub-technique of: T1635
Adversaries may register Uniform Resource Identifiers (URIs) to intercept sensitive data.
Applications regularly register URIs with the operating system to act as a response handler for various actions, such as logging into an app using an external account via single sign-on. This allows redirections to that specific URI to be intercepted by the application. If an adversary were to register for a URI that was already in use by a genuine application, the adversary may be able to intercept data intended for the genuine application or perform a phishing attack against the genuine application. Intercepted data may include OAuth authorization codes or tokens that could be used by the adversary to gain access to protected resources.
Platforms: Android, iOS
Determine if the target mobile environment is susceptible to URI Hijacking by examining the target platforms (Android, iOS).
Review whether mitigations for T1635.001 are in place. If defenses are absent or misconfigured, this technique may be exploitable.
Developers should use Android App Links and iOS Universal Links to provide a secure binding between URIs and applications, preventing malicious applications from intercepting redirections. Additionally, for OAuth use cases, PKCE should be used to prevent use of stolen authorization codes.
