[Soot-list] ZipException using soot-infoflow-android

[Steven Arzt]

Well, the problem is that we use the normal JDK ZipFile class, so we have no influence on what the JDK is doing internally to handle ZIP files. What you can do, however, is to double-check the path to the APK file. You might also see this message because the ZipFile class simply can’t find the APK it is supposed to open.

Thanks Steven for the reply,

I tried extracting the apk using WinRar.

Two things , First, i am running FlowDroid on DroidBench benchmarks and using the apks provided , so i assume those are well formed. 

Second, I am on Linux platform and could extract the apk using the archive manager and also with the WinRar as asked. I am not sure where is the issue.

 

Any help will be great

Thanks

Hi Ashish,

 

Please check whether you can open the APK file with an unzip tool such as WinZip or WinRAR (you might have to rename it to .zip for this test). If that fails, Soot is out of luck as well.

 

Best regards,

  Steven

Hi All,

 

I am getting this ZipException for all the apk file i pass as the parameter , according to the comments its thrown for wrong invalid apk, but i dont see that as a possibility here (As it happens for well formed apks ).

 

My parameters are file path to the apk , and the path to the platforms/ dir
