sickserv 0.1.2

sickserv

sickserv

This is a Python 3.6+ client-server wrapper & framework that allows you to rapidly build simple, fast, encrypted, asynchronous, multi-client application communication.

Highlights:

• Client/server wrapper around Sanic, requests, and websocket-client.
• Provides a framework for multi-client communication, based around unique system identifiers.
• Supports simplistically sending and receiving RC4 encrypted JSON payloads.
• Supports sending either string or byte values using base64 encoding.
• Provides a client and server for either websocket or non-websocket applications.
• Natively asynchronous, provided by Sanic.
• Client/server support for RC4 rekey on-the-fly.

Install

Do it up:

$ pip install sickserv --user

Communication Flow

Initial payloads are always JSON (with a defined endpoint), which are then base64 encoded, RC4 encrypted, and then sent over HTTP or HTTPS (on any port desired).

Send data:
JSON -> base64 encode values -> RC4 encrypt -> send (HTTPS)

Recv data:
recv (HTTPS) -> RC4 decrypt -> base64 decode values -> JSON

Simple Example (non-WebSocket)

See the examples/ folder for more, including: a MUD, chat server, and reverse shell.

Server:

from sickserv import server, set_init_key
from sickserv.server import response

set_init_key('yellow-submarine')

@server.app.route('/test/<sysid>', methods=['POST',])
async def test(request, sysid):
    payload = server.unprocess_payload(sysid, request.body)
    print(payload)
    return_payload = server.process_payload(sysid, {'Look Mom': 'No Hands!'})
    return response.text(return_payload)

server.run(port=1337)

Client:

from sickserv import SickServClient, set_init_key

set_init_key('yellow-submarine')
ssc = SickServClient('127.0.0.1', port=1337)
payload = {
    'endpoint': 'test',
    'example': 'This is some example test data'
}
response = ssc.send(payload)
print(response)

Server side:

$ python server.py

Client side:

$ python test_client.py
{'Look Mom': 'No Hands!'}

Rekey

An initial, matching RC4 key must be supplied. However, the session can easily be rekeyed on the fly.

A rekey is done from the client-end, like so:

ssc.rekey()                       # rekey with a random 16 character length key
ssc.rekey(length=32)              # rekey with a random 32 character length key
ssc.rekey(key='purple-submarine') # rekey with a custom defined key
