corellium-ios-connect

Overview

This script is designed to streamline the process of connecting an iOS device from the Corellium instance over USB on a Linux machine. It automates the installation of necessary packages, sets up services, and configures network exposure for usbfluxd, making it easier for users to connect their devices and start working with Corellium.

Purpose

Working with iOS devices in Corellium often requires a specific setup on a Linux machine, including the installation and configuration of various services like usbmuxd, socat, and usbfluxd. This script automates the setup process, ensuring that all dependencies are installed and configured correctly. Additionally, it handles network exposure, allowing usbfluxd to be accessible over the network, which is essential for remote connections to Corellium instances.

Features

• Automated Installation: The script checks for and installs all required packages (usbmuxd, libimobiledevice-utils, socat, and usbfluxd), ensuring the environment is properly set up.
• Service Management: It starts and enables the usbmuxd service, and starts usbfluxd and avahi-daemon with the necessary configurations.
• Network Exposure: The script exposes the usbmuxd socket on port 5000, allowing remote Corellium instances to connect to the device.
• User Interaction: Prompts the user for the IP address of the Corellium host and configures usbfluxd to connect to the specified remote instance.
• Diagnostic Tools: Includes checks for device detection and service status, helping users troubleshoot any issues.

Prerequisite

• iOS device must be connected via openvpn.
• IP address of corellium host (could be found at Connect tab of corellium or Wifi setting of iOS application)

Installation

1. Clone the Bash file:
   bash git clone https://github.com/dr34mhacks/corellium-ios-connect.git cd corellium-ios-connect

2. Make the Script Executable:
   bash chmod +x corellium-ios-connect-fix.sh

Working

When you run the script, it will:
1. Update the package list.
2. Check for and install usbmuxd, libimobiledevice-utils, socat, and usbfluxd if they are not already installed.
3. Start and enable the usbmuxd service.
4. Start avahi-daemon and usbfluxd in the background.
5. Prompt you for the IP address of the Corellium host to which you want to connect.
6. Set up the necessary network exposure to allow usbfluxd to communicate with the Corellium instance.
7. Check if the device is detected and display the connection status.

After the script completes, your Linux machine should be ready to connect your iOS device to Corellium.
