Thick Client Security Testing

ACTION REQUIRED (execute immediately after reading)

NOW: read ../field-journal/precedent-pentest.md
NOW: confirm the target is a desktop thick client (Win/macOS/Linux GUI or service companion), not pure web
NOW: case-init; write the installer source and test accounts into scope
NEXT: tools (Burp upstream proxy, process monitoring, reverse engineering tools)
ACT: trust-boundary map → local surface → network surface → update/supply chain

Applicable Scenarios

C/S architecture clients, Electron/Qt/.NET WinForms/WPF
Local config/credential storage, IPC, named pipes
Client-side enforced-validation bypass research (authorized)
Auto-update channels and code-signature verification

Workflow

1. Build Boundaries

□ Process tree, child processes, drivers/services
□ Listening ports and outbound domains
□ Local sensitive paths: %APPDATA%, Keychain, registry

2. Local Attack Surface

□ Cleartext config, hardcoded keys, debug switches
□ DLL hijacking/search order (Windows)
□ Database file (SQLite) permissions and encryption
□ IPC: who can connect? Is there authentication?

3. Network Surface

□ System proxy / app-custom TLS
□ Certificate pinning → combine with mobile/js methodology or Frida
□ API privilege escalation: admin endpoints hidden in the client

4. Reverse-Engineering Verification

□ .NET → dotnet-reverse; native → ida/ghidra; Electron → asar + js-reverse

Toolchain

Tool	Purpose
Process Monitor / API Monitor	Behavior
Burp / mitmproxy	Traffic
dnSpy / IDA / Ghidra	Reverse engineering
Sysinternals	Windows surface
asar / nexe detection	Electron

Routing Context

Upstream: MASTER R32
Downstream: pure protocols protocol-reverse; supply-chain updates supply-chain-security

Task Completion Self-Check

Trust boundaries drawn?
Both local + network surfaces covered?
