java - What methods are there to programmatically detect vulnerabilities within an Android O.S? -


what methods there programmatically detect vulnerabilities within android o.s? lead dos, code execution, overflow, memory corruption attacks etc.

i'm not wanting know how perform above attacks, instead i'd know how can verify programatically whether flaws required perform attacks above exist within user's o.s

do know method in, can write piece of code within android, scan through user's o.s flaws can lead toward dos attack etc.?

assuming want code detects these vulnerabilities, wouldn't make sense because why wouldn't google's world class engineers run code detect these vulnerabilities themselves?

i think best way approach problem map known vulnerabilities (perhaps may help) versions of android prior patch.

therefore code detects user's android version, , lists discovered vulnerabilities.

this isn't silver bullet solution because because security vulnerability fixed in 4.1, doesn't mean existed in previous version of android. maybe 4.0 vulnerable.

edit:

here website may in mapping vulnerabilities android versions.
