6 Free CEH Mobile Platform, IoT, and OT Hacking Practice Questions with Answers
Each question below includes 4 answer options, the correct answer, and a detailed explanation. These are real questions from the FlashGenius CEH 312-50 v13 question bank for the Mobile Platform, IoT, and OT Hacking domain (8% of the exam).
Sample Question 1 — Hacking Mobile Platforms
You are tasked with performing a penetration test on an Android banking application. You discover that the application stores sensitive user data in plain text within the app's local storage. Which tool would be most appropriate to further analyze and exploit this vulnerability?
- A. Drozer (Correct answer)
- B. Wireshark
- C. Burp Suite
- D. Nmap
Correct answer: A
Explanation: Drozer is a comprehensive security audit and attack framework for Android applications, specifically designed to analyze app data storage and permissions. Wireshark is used for network traffic analysis, Burp Suite is mainly for web application testing, and Nmap is a network scanner.
Sample Question 2 — Hacking Mobile Platforms
While assessing an iOS application, you are informed that the app uses weak cryptographic algorithms for data encryption. Which tool would be the best choice to determine the specific algorithms in use?
- A. iMAS (Correct answer)
- B. OWASP ZAP
- C. Cydia
- D. John the Ripper
Correct answer: A
Explanation: iMAS provides a suite of tools for analyzing the security of iOS apps, including identifying insecure cryptographic implementations. OWASP ZAP is more suitable for web app penetration testing, Cydia is a package manager for jailbroken iOS devices, and John the Ripper is a password cracker.
Sample Question 3 — Hacking Mobile Platforms
During a penetration test of a mobile messaging application, you identify that SSL pinning is not implemented. What is the potential risk associated with this vulnerability?
- A. Increased risk of SQL Injection
- B. Susceptibility to Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) attacks (Correct answer)
- C. Exposure to Denial-of-Service (DoS) attacks
- D. Vulnerability to Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)
Correct answer: B
Explanation: Without SSL pinning, the application is vulnerable to Man-in-the-Middle attacks because attackers can intercept and alter data by spoofing the server's certificate. SQL Injection, DoS, and XSS are unrelated to SSL pinning.
Sample Question 4 — Hacking Mobile Platforms
You are analyzing a mobile app to check for potential data leakage through third-party libraries. Which method would be most effective in identifying insecure library usage?
- A. Static Code Analysis (Correct answer)
- B. Using a Packet Sniffer
- C. Port Scanning
- D. Brute Force Attack
Correct answer: A
Explanation: Static Code Analysis allows you to examine the code structure and identify insecure libraries before the app is run. A packet sniffer analyzes network traffic, port scanning identifies open ports, and brute force attacks are used to crack passwords.
Sample Question 5 — Hacking Mobile Platforms
During a security assessment of a mobile app, you find that the application does not verify the cryptographic signatures of updates. What is the implication of this vulnerability?
- A. The application can be subjected to unauthorized updates (Correct answer)
- B. Increased likelihood of SQL Injection attacks
- C. Potential for buffer overflow exploits
- D. Higher chances of phishing attacks
Correct answer: A
Explanation: Without verifying cryptographic signatures, an attacker can push unauthorized updates to the app, potentially compromising security. This vulnerability does not directly relate to SQL Injection, buffer overflow, or phishing.
Sample Question 6 — Hacking Mobile Platforms
While testing a mobile application, you notice it uses a hardcoded API key in the source code. Which tool would best help in determining the impact of this vulnerability?
- A. Mobile Security Framework (MobSF) (Correct answer)
- B. Cain & Abel
- C. Metasploit
- D. Aircrack-ng
Correct answer: A
Explanation: Mobile Security Framework (MobSF) can perform both static and dynamic analysis to evaluate the security implications of hardcoded keys. Cain & Abel is for password recovery, Metasploit is a general pentesting framework, and Aircrack-ng is for wireless network security.
How to Study CEH Mobile Platform, IoT, and OT Hacking
Combine these CEH Mobile Platform, IoT, and OT Hacking practice questions with hands-on labs in a Kali Linux VM and on platforms like TryHackMe, HackTheBox, or the official CEH iLabs. The 312-50 v13 exam emphasizes practical attacker tradecraft, so always test commands and tools in a sandboxed environment — that hands-on muscle memory is what separates passing and failing scores.
