Damn Vulnerable iOS App (DVIA) is an iOS application that is damn vulnerable. Its main goal is to provide a platform to mobile security enthusiasts/professionals or students to test their iOS penetration testing skills in a legal environment. This project is developed and maintained by @prateekg147. The vulnerabilities and solutions covered in this app are tested up to iOS 11. The current version is writen in Swift and has the following vulnerabilities. observed · 2026-08-28

Damn Vulnerable iOS App (DVIA-v2) is a deliberately vulnerable iOS application written in Swift for practicing iOS penetration testing. It covers vulnerabilities like jailbreak detection bypass, local data storage flaws, runtime manipulation, and broken cryptography in a legal training environment.

Use cases

  • practice ios penetration testing skills
  • learn ios mobile security vulnerabilities
  • train on jailbreak detection bypass techniques
  • test runtime manipulation and hooking tools
  • practice bypassing touch/face id in a lab
  • learn ios reverse engineering and binary patching

When to choose

  • you are learning or teaching iOS security testing
  • you need a legal target app for mobile pentest practice
  • you want hands-on exercises for iOS vulnerability classes

When to avoid

  • you need a production or secure iOS app
  • you target modern iOS versions beyond iOS 11-era techniques
  • you want automated security scanning of your own app
