bruteloops 1.0.1

A password guessing API.

BruteLoops

A dead simple library providing the foundational logic for efficient password brute force attacks against authentication interfaces.

See BFG.

The examples have been offloaded to a distinct project to minimize code and packaging issues. Database and attack capabilities have also been merged into a single binary.

Key Features

• Protocol agnostic - If a callback can be written in Python, BruteLoops can be used to attack it
• SQLite support - All usernames, passwords, and credentials are maintained in an SQLite database.
  • A companion utility (dbmanager.py) that creates and manages input databases accompanies BruteLoops
• Spray and Stuffing Attacks in One Tool - BruteLoops supports both spray and stuffing attacks in the same attack logic and database, meaning that you can configure a single database and run the attack without heavy reconfiguration and confusion.
• Guess scheduling - Each username in the SQLite database is configured with a timestamp that is updated after each authentication event. This means we can significantly reduce likelihood of locking accounts by scheduling each authentication event with precision.
• Fine-grained configurability to avoid lockout events - Microsoft's lockout policies can be matched 1-to-1 using BruteLoop's parameters:
  • auth_threshold = Lockout Threshold
  • max_auth_jitter = Lockout Observation Window
  • Timestampes associated with each authentication event are tracked in BruteLoops' SQLite database. Each username receives a distinct timestamp to assure that authentication events are highly controlled.
• Attack resumption - Stopping and resuming an attack is possible without worrying about losing your place in the attack or locking accounts.
• Multiprocessing - Speed up attacks using multiprocessing! By configuring the parallel guess count, you're effectively telling BruteLoops how many usernames to guess in parallel.
• Logging - Each authentication event can optionally logged to disk. This information can be useful during red teams by providing customers with a detailed attack timeline that can be mapped back to logged events.
• Breakers - Breakers behave like circuit breakers. An exception can be raised x number of times before ending the attack loop. They can reset after a given period of time as well, allowing for configurations like "Exit after 6 ConnectionErrors occur".

Dependencies

BruteLoops requires Python3.7 or newer and SQLAlchemy 1.3.0, the latter of which can be obtained via pip and the requirements.txt file in this repository: python3.7 -m pip install -r requirements.txt

Installation

git clone https://github.com/arch4ngel/bruteloops
cd bruteloops
