Update: virustotal-search.py Version 0.1.5

Filed under: Malware,My Software,Update — Didier Stevens @ 0:00

virustotal-search.py is a tool to query VirusTotal via its public API for file reports by providing hashes to search for.

This new version adds searching for URLs. Use option -t to select the type of search you want: file (default) or url.

Like this:

Option -e can be used to include extra information (present in the JSON reply) not included by default.

For example, a default file search does not include sha256 hashes:

But you can include it with option “-e sha256” like this:

The public API can also be used for queries for domain names and IP addresses. These queries are much simpler than file and url, and therefor, I developed a very generic program to query APIs. This will be released soon.

Quickpost: C Random Functions in Other Languages

Filed under: Quickpost — Didier Stevens @ 0:00

Some time ago, I had to implement a particular C-runtime random number generator in Python. That’s not difficult to do, you just need a variable that maintains the state (seed) of the random number generator, and then you use a simple algebraic expression: a linear congruential generator.

What’s more difficult to figure out, is knowing which multiplier (a) and increment (c) you need to reproduce the particular C-runtime random number generator.

Fortunately, I discovered that Wikipedia has a table with a and c values for many C compilers and other languages: parameters in common use.

Update: sets.py Version 0.0.3

Filed under: My Software,Update — Didier Stevens @ 9:21

sets.py is a program to perform set operations. In this new version, I added operations unique, product, substitute and sort.

And I added options -s and -i.

Operation unique will remove all double entries (which shouldn’t occur anyway in a mathematical set):

“Line 5” appears twice in set4.txt, thus one occurrence is remove by operation unique. “Line 4” and “Line 6” not, because their case is different, or because they have leading whitespace.

To ignore case, use option -i, and to ignore leading and trailing whitespace, use option -s:

Update: hex-to-bin.py Version 0.0.2

Filed under: My Software,Update — Didier Stevens @ 10:47

This new version comes with option -a to parse ASCII/hexdumps as produced by my tools.

Option -s can be used to select another hexadecimal/ASCII dump than the first one (for example, -s 2 to select the second dump).

Option -l (list) can be used to produce an overview of all hexadecimal/ASCII dumps found in the input, together with an index number to be used with option -s.

WebDAV, NTLM & Responder

Filed under: Encryption,Networking — Didier Stevens @ 0:00

I was trying to create a capture file with NTLM authenticated WebDAV traffic, using Responder: I couldn’t get it to work. There was WebDAV traffic, but no NTLMSSP headers.

Long story short: there’s a bug in Responder version 2.3.3.9. It manifests itself when the WebDAV client sends a request with just headers, and “Content-Length: 0”, like this:

The code in Responder “sees” just “Content-Length” and waits for more packets:

I made a quick & dirty fix: break out of the loop when we see “Content-Length: 0” (servers/HTTP.py):

And now I have NTLMSSP headers:

I just start my modified version of Responder:

Generate WebDAV traffic from a Windows 7 client:

And Responder participates in the challenge:

This can of course be cracked (if the password is not too complex), with John The Ripper for example:

I also have a blog post with more details about WebDAV traffic from Windows clients.

Once I got Responder to work, I searched on Laurent’s Responder repository, and found a pull-request to fix issues with “Content-Length: 0” requests (this PR has not been merged yet). Hence I’m not going to do my own PR.

You can find the capture file here:
