An on-device Android app that scans a device for known vulnerabilities such as kernel and framework bugs (e.g., Towelroot, Master Keys). It reports which CVEs a given device remains susceptible to, helping users assess their patch status.

Use cases

  • check if my android device is vulnerable to known cves
  • scan android phone for unpatched security bugs
  • test whether towelroot or master key vulnerabilities affect my device
  • audit android device security patch level
  • see which android vulnerabilities my oem has not fixed

When to choose

  • you want an on-device, no-root check for a catalog of historical Android vulnerabilities
  • you are researching the patch state of older Android devices or OEM update lag

When to avoid

  • you need current vulnerability coverage - the project has not been updated since 2019 and misses modern CVEs
  • you need automated fleet scanning or CI-based security testing rather than a manual on-device app
