PyPI Package

Install from PyPI using pip:

pip install mdast_cli

After installation, you can use the mdast_cli command directly:

mdast_cli --help

Note: You may need to install additional system dependencies depending on your distribution system choice (e.g., apkeep for Google Play).

From Source

Requirements:

Python 3.9 or higher (3.9, 3.10, 3.11, 3.12 supported)

Clone the repository and install dependencies:

git clone https://github.com/Dynamic-Mobile-Security/mdast-cli.git
cd mdast-cli
pip install -r requirements.txt

Then run the script directly:

python3 mdast_cli/mdast_scan.py --help

Quick Start

Download an Application

mdast_cli -d \
  --distribution_system google_play \
  --google_play_package_name com.example.app \
  --google_play_email user@example.com \
  --google_play_aas_token "YOUR_AAS_TOKEN"

Run a Security Scan

mdast_cli \
  --distribution_system file \
  --file_path app.apk \
  --url "https://saas.mobile.appsec.world" \
  --company_id 1 \
  --token "YOUR_TOKEN" \
  --profile_id 1 \
  --testcase_id 4 \
  --summary_report_json_file_name report.json

Usage Modes

Download Only Mode

Use the --download_only (or -d) flag to download applications without scanning:

mdast_cli -d --distribution_system google_play --google_play_package_name com.example.app ...

Output:

Downloads the application to the specified --download_path (default: downloaded_apps/)
Prints DOWNLOAD_PATH=/path/to/app.apk for CI/CD parsing
Exits immediately after download

Use Cases:

Testing download functionality
Manual application analysis
CI/CD pipelines that handle scanning separately

Scan Mode

Without --download_only, the script will:

Download the application (if not using file distribution)
Upload to the DAST platform
Start a security scan
Wait for completion (unless --nowait is set)
Generate reports (if specified)

Distribution Systems

Local File

Use a local APK/IPA file for scanning.

Required Parameters:

--distribution_system file
--file_path <path> - Absolute or relative path to the application file

Example:

mdast_cli \
  --distribution_system file \
  --file_path /path/to/app.apk \
  --url "https://saas.mobile.appsec.world" \
  --company_id 1 \
  --token "YOUR_TOKEN" \
  --profile_id 1

Docker Example:

docker run -it \
  -v /host/path/to/apps:/mdast/files \

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

Google Play Authentication Errors

Problem: DF-DFERH-01 error or authentication failures

Solutions:

Ensure apkeep is installed and in PATH: apkeep --version
Verify OAuth2 token is valid and not expired
Use a temporary Google account with 2FA disabled
Check that AAS token format is correct (starts with aas_et/)

Problem: "Wrong Apple ID" or login failures

Solutions:

Ensure 2FA is enabled on the Apple ID
Use the 6-digit 2FA code (not the longer backup code)
Format password+2FA correctly: password2FA (e.g., P@ssword742877)
Contact support if Apple ID needs to be whitelisted
Re-authenticate if session expired (sessions last ~6 months)

Firebase Service Account Errors

Problem: Authentication or permission errors

Solutions:

Verify Service Account JSON file path is correct
Ensure Service Account has cloud-platform scope enabled
Check that Service Account has access to Firebase App Distribution
Verify project number and app ID format
Ensure JSON file is valid (not corrupted)

Network/Timeout Issues

Problem: Downloads fail or time out

Solutions:

Check network connectivity
Verify distribution system URLs are accessible
Use --google_play_proxy for Google Play if behind firewall
