Protect your python script, encrypt .pyc to .pye and decrypt when import it


Protect python script work flow

  • your_script.py import pyconcrete

  • pyconcrete will hook import module

  • when your script do import MODULE, pyconcrete import hook will try to find MODULE.pye first and then decrypt MODULE.pye via _pyconcrete.pyd and execute decrypted data (as .pyc content)

  • encrypt & decrypt secret key record in _pyconcrete.pyd (like DLL or SO) the secret key would be hide in binary code, can’t see it directly in HEX view

Encryption

  • only support AES 128 bit now

  • encrypt & decrypt by library OpenAES

Installation

  • need to input your passphrase create secret key for encrypt python script.

  • same passphrase will generate the same secret key

  • installation will add pyconcrete.pth into your site-packages for execute sitecustomize.py under pyconcrete which will automatic import pyconcrete

pip

$ pip install pyconcrete

If you only execute ``pip install`` will not display any prompt(via
stdout) from pyconcrete. Installation will be ``blocked`` and
``waiting for user input passphrase twice``. You must input
passphrase for installation continuously.
$ pip install pyconcrete --egg --install-option="--passphrase=<your passphrase>"

pyconcrete installed as egg, if you want to uninstall pyconcrete
will need to manually delete ``pyconcrete.pth``.

source

  • get the pyconcrete source code

    $ git clone <pyconcrete repo> <pyconcre dir>
  • install pyconcrete

    $ python setup.py install

Usage

Full encrypted

  • convert all of your .py to *.pye

    $ pyconcrete-admin.py compile --source=<your py script>  --pye
    $ pyconcrete-admin.py compile --source=<your py module dir> --pye
  • remove *.py *.pyc or copy *.pye to other folder

  • main.py encrypted as main.pye, it can’t be executed by normal python. You must use pyconcrete to process the main.pye script. pyconcrete(exe) will be installed in your system path (ex: /usr/local/bin)

pyconcrete main.pye
src/*.pye  # your libs

Partial encrypted (pyconcrete as lib)

  • download pyconcrete source and install by setup.py

    $ python setup.py install \
      --install-lib=<your project path> \
      --install-scripts=<where you want to execute pyconcrete-admin.py and pyconcrete(exe)>
  • import pyconcrete in your main script

  • recommendation project layout

    main.py       # import pyconcrete and your lib
    pyconcrete/*  # put pyconcrete lib in project root, keep it as original files
    src/*.pye     # your libs

Test

  • test all case

    $ ./pyconcrete-admin.py test
  • test all case, setup TEST_PYE_PERFORMANCE_COUNT env to reduce testing time

    $ TEST_PYE_PERFORMANCE_COUNT=1 ./pyconcrete-admin.py test

Announcement

pyconcrete is an experimental project, there is always a way to decrypt .pye files, but pyconcrete just make it harder.
