Dependency Confusion Scanner

What is DepRaptor?

DepRaptor is a production-grade dependency confusion vulnerability scanner built for security researchers and bug bounty hunters. It detects packages vulnerable to dependency confusion attacks across multiple ecosystems, generates proof-of-concept packages with modular payloads, and produces detailed reports — all from a single CLI.


Installation

pip install depraptor

Quick Start

# Interactive mode — guided step-by-step workflow
depraptor scan ./my-project

# Scan with explicit payload and callback
depraptor scan ./my-project --payload webhook --callback https://webhook.site/xxx

# Scan a GitHub repo
depraptor scan https://github.com/org/repo

# Scan an entire GitHub org
depraptor scan org:stripe

# Scan from a list of repo URLs
depraptor scan list:repos.txt

# Scan from a list of local paths
depraptor scan paths:targets.txt

# Dry-run with autopublish (no actual upload)
depraptor scan ./my-project --autopublish --simulate

# Check environment
depraptor doctor

CLI Reference

depraptor scan TARGET [OPTIONS]
Flag Short Description
--payload -p Payload type: system_info | webhook | discord | interactsh | ci_env_dump | custom
--callback -c Callback URL for webhook/discord/interactsh payloads
--threads -t Registry check threads (default: 10)
--output -o Output directory (default: ./results)
--repo-dir Directory for cloned repos (default: ./repos)
--autopublish Publish PoC packages after generation (requires confirmation)
--simulate Dry-run — build PoCs but skip publishing
--secrets Run TruffleHog secret scan on the target
--github-token GitHub personal access token
--verbose -v Verbose logging to stderr

Interactive Mode

Running depraptor scan <target> with no payload flags enters interactive mode:

  1. Scan dependencies and check registries
  2. Display vulnerable packages
  3. Prompt to choose PoC payload type
  4. Prompt for callback URL (if needed)
  5. Generate PoC packages
  6. Ask if you want to publish (default: No)
  7. Safety confirmation before any publish

Payload Types

Payload Description
system_info Logs hostname, username, cwd, env vars to a local file
webhook POSTs system info as JSON to an HTTP callback URL
discord Sends a formatted message to a Discord webhook
interactsh DNS/HTTP ping to an interact.sh OOB domain
ci_env_dump Captures CI/CD tokens and secrets to a local file
custom Stub for your own payload code

Target Modes

Format Example Description
Local path ./project Scan a local directory
GitHub URL https://github.com/org/repo Clone and scan a single repo
GitHub org org:stripe Scan all public repos in an org
Repo list list:repos.txt Scan repos from a URL list file
Path list paths:targets.txt Scan multiple local paths from a file

Configuration File

Create ~/.depraptor/config.yaml to set defaults:

threads: 20
default_payload: webhook
simulate: false
npm_token: ""
pypi_token: ""
github_token: ""
verbose: false

CLI flags always override config file values.


Risk Scoring

Each vulnerable package gets a risk score from 0–10:

Factor Score
Not in public registry +5.0
Internal naming pattern (internal-, private-, etc.) +2.0
CI/CD pipeline detected +1.5
Unpinned / wildcard version +1.0
Short package name +0.5

Supported Dependency Files

Ecosystem Files
Python requirements*.txt, pyproject.toml, setup.py, Pipfile
Node.js package.json
Ruby Gemfile
Go go.mod
Rust Cargo.toml

Security Notice

This tool is intended only for authorized security testing, bug bounty programs with proper scope, and security research with explicit permission.

  • Do NOT publish PoC packages to public registries without authorization
  • Do NOT test systems you don't own or have written permission to test
  • Always follow responsible disclosure practices

Unauthorized use may be illegal. The author is not responsible for misuse.

Security for depraptor 2.0.8

Provenance

Provenance describes where a file came from. On PyPI, provenance is shared via attestations, which provide a verifiable record of the build or publishing details. View details, limitations and caveats.

None of the files in this release were uploaded with provenance metadata.

A note on package security

PyPI is a repository for distributing packages, not a service for auditing them. While third-party security researchers and our staff do their best to detect and remove malicious packages, PyPI cannot guarantee the quality, security or suitability of any given package.
