HttpBee – Web Application Hacking Toolkit

HttpBee is a swiss-army-knife tool for web application hacking. It is multi-threaded, embedded with scriptable engine and has both command-line and daemon mode (if executed in daemon mode, HttpBee can become an agent of a distributed framework).

This is a tool for more advanced users and there isn’t much documentation so if anyone feels like writing a more comprehensive guide or tutorial, please do so!

Installing

You will need lua 5.1.x. Grab it at http://www.lua.org/ftp/

You will also need pcre library.

There’s no ./configure script in HttpBee at the moment, so you will need to change Makefile directly before you build it. Look into CXXFLAGS and CFLAGS section. -DOS_X (or -DLINUX, or -DWINDOWS is basically a setting for your platform, plus, ajust the pathes).

Using

The folder ‘modules’ contains lua plugins that HttpBee uses to perform its assessment tasks. You can run HttpBee as ./httpbee -s path/to/modules/script.lua -t 255 -h localhost (specifying different number of parallel threads impacts performance)

Scripting

The way HttpBee’s scripting engine is implemented is relevant to HttpBee architecture itself. HttpBee maintains a pool of threads that it uses for parallel task execution. Therefore execution of HttpBee scripts is not linear. Instead, there are certain functions which are executed at certain steps of scanning process. The global scripting part is executed when the script is initially “scanned”, so HttpBee can pick up tags, description and other data from your script. init function will be executed only when your script is picked up and scheduled for execution (based on tags selection for example).

Official release of SQL Power Injector 1.2

SQL Power Injector is a graphical application created in .NET 1.1 that helps the penetrating tester to inject SQL commands on a web page.

For now it is SQL Server, Oracle and MySQL compliant, but it is possible to use it with any existing DBMS when using the inline injection (Normal mode).

Moreover this application will get all the parameters you need to test the SQL injection, either by GET or POST method, avoiding thus the need to use several applications or a proxy to intercept the data.

The emphasis for this release is maturity, stability and reliability with secondary goals of usability, documentation and innovation.

There’s also a nifty Firefox Extension now.

One of the major improvements is an innovative way to optimize and accelerate the dichotomy in the Blind SQL injection, saving time/number of requests up to 25%.

Added to this it’s now possible to define a range list that will replace a variable (<<@>>) inside a blind SQL injection string and automatically play them for you. That means you can get all the database names from the sysdatabases table in MS SQL without having to input the dbid each time for example.

Also another great time saver is a new Firefox plugin that will launch SQL Power Injector with all the information of the current webpage with its session context. No more time wasted to copy paste the session cookies after you logged… And of course you can make the easy SQL tests in your browser and you use the plugin once you want to search more thoroughly.

To make your life easier there is now a new feature that will search the diff between a positive condition (1=1) response with a negative condition (1=2) and display the list for you.

Last major addition is the extensive databases Help file (chm) that contains most of the information you need when you SQL inject. It covers the 5 DBMS supported by SQL Power Injector. You can find in it the system tables and views with their columns, environment variables, the useful functions and stored procedures. All this with some notes to how to use them and why it’s useful for SQL injection.

aircrack-ng – WEP and WPA-PSK Key Cracking Program

aircrack is an 802.11 WEP and WPA-PSK keys cracking program that can recover keys once enough data packets have been captured. It implements the standard FMS attack along with some optimizations like KoreK attacks, thus making the attack much faster compared to other WEP cracking tools. In fact, aircrack is a set of tools for auditing wireless networks.

Aircrack-ng is the next generation of aircrack with lots of new features:

• Better documentation (wiki, manpages) and support (Forum, trac, IRC: #aircrack-ng on Freenode).
• More cards/drivers supported
• New WEP attack: PTW
• More OS and platforms supported
• Fragmentation attack
• Improved cracking speed
• WEP dictionary attack
• Capture with multiple cards
• New tools: airtun-ng, packetforge-ng (improved arpforge), wesside-ng and airserv-ng
• Optimizations, other improvements and bug fixing

Download the latest version of aircrack-ng here:

Linux – aircrack-ng-0.9.1.tar.gz

Windows – aircrack-ng-0.9.1-win.zip
