Main Features
For pastebin.com the bot has two modes:
- looking for sensitive data in the archive via scraping
- looking for sensitive data by tracking users who publish leaks
Additional features:
- customizable search terms
- scan folders with text files for sensitive information
Configuration
- Delete the README.md files in every subfolder as they are only placeholders
- The bot searches for email:password combinations and other kinds sensitive data by default. If you want to add more search terms edit the configs/searchterms.txt file or use the -3 switch in the control script Default configs/searchterms.txt configuration:
mysqli_connect( BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY The name of the database for WordPress apiKey: Return-Path: insert into INSERT INTO .onion
If you want to add other search terms just add them to file line by line. You know a useful search terms which is missing here? Tell me! 🙂 3. For the user tracking module of pastebin.com you need to add the target users line by line to the configs/users.txt file.
Usage
Program help:
$ python3 scavenger.py -h / / _ _ __ _____ _/ \__ \ \/ // _ \ / \ / _/ _ _ _ \ / \ __ / _ \ /\ /| | \/ // > /| | \/ / /__ >_ /_/ ___ >| /___ / ___ >| \/ \/ \/ \/ \//_/ \/ Reworked usage: scavenger.py [-h] [-0] [-1] [-2] [-3] [-4] control script optional arguments: -h, --help show this help message and exit -0, --pbincom Activate pastebin.com archive scraping module -1, --pbincomTrack Activate pastebin.com user tracking module -2, --sensitivedata Search a specific folder for sensitive data. This might be useful if you want to analyze some pastes which were not collected by the bot. -3, --editsearch Edit search terms file for additional search terms (email:password combinations will always be searched) -4, --editusers Edit user file of the pastebin.com user track module example usage: python3 scavenger.py -0 -1
Crawled pastes are stored at different locations depending on their status.
- Paste crawled but nothing was detected -> data/raw_pastes
- Paste crawled and an email:password combination was detected -> data/raw_pastes and data/files_with_passwords
- Paste crawled and other sensitive data was detected -> data/raw_pastes and data/otherSensitivePastes
Pastes get stored in data/raw_pastes until they reach a limit of 48000 files. Once there are more then 48000 pastes they get ziped and moved to the archive folder.
Start the pastebin.com archive scraping module
$ python3 scavenger.py -0
Start pastebin.com user tracking module
$ python3 scavenger.py -1
When starting one of these modules, a tmux session with the running module is created in the background.
List tmux sessions
$ tmux ls
pastebincomArchive: 1 windows (created Sun Apr 14 06:33:32 2021) [204x58]
pastebincomTrack: 1 windows (created Sun Apr 14 06:33:32 2021) [204x58]
Interact with a tmux session example
$ tmux a -t pastebincomArchive
$ tmux a -t pastebincomTrack
To detach from a session hit STRG+b d.
If you want to start a module without using the control software you can do this by calling them directly.
Pastebin.com archive scraper
$ python3 pbincomArchiveScrape.py
Pastebin.com user tracker
$ python3 pbincomTrackUser.py
Search specific folder for sensitive data:
$ python3 findSensitiveData.py TARGET_FOLDER
