How to Mod a Firebase APK to gain access to the database

Programming and Developement Reverse engineering

Not sure where to start here

I have a firebase APK app that I want to modify to give my self full front and backend app access how can that be done

Is there a specific category for it, if yes please share the link

Thanks

Wanna elaborate? What exactly are you looking for?

As for the correct category, try Software & tools > Android Apps

Are you trying to hack it or what :grinning_face: ? Maybe i misunderstood what your asking? Get whoever currently controls the firebase to give you access…

Yep you got it, you understood correctly

I know there should be a way as I know someone that got access to it without having any access before hand

Thanks, but I need to know what a “firebase APK app” means - is it an apk that displays the firebase website? It is a custom frontend that uses firebase backend? I need to know about the app itself, not its backstory.

If you tell us what the app itself does - and how its made, we can try to help.

Sorry not sure why I only saw this now

Im not sure my self I’ll need to verify this but I think its a APK that displays the firebase site as you can also use the site as well as the app, does this make sense, what other details do you need

Assuming its just a webview, then the apk isnt your problem, its access to their firebase. Let me ask you this: are you able to log into their database from the website, on a computer?

P.S. if they made their own frontend, I cant help you get yourself in, (and no one should help him either) because that seems like something the management should be doing for you

If he is trying to hack it then please do not help

Please ask your org management for their database credentials and if they don’t want to give it to you we can’t help you here on JTech
