Unhappy with the slowness of available Python token-fetching bruteforcers, I created et-tu-brute to allow for easy, ultrafast multithreaded attacks on CSRF-protected login portals.
Tested against a Proving Grounds machine with a CSRF-protected web portal, et-tu-brute clocked ~120,000 password attempts in 9 minutes. Add it to your toolkit to directly attack CSRF logins at a rapidfire rate, no proxy or long wait required.
It also handles huge wordlists well, loading 1gb+ password lists with no slowdown or long initial delay.
./ettubrute <login_url> <csrf_htmlname> <wordlist> <postdata_nocsrf> <username> <errormsg> [--speed <spd>]
Here's an example with the values filled in:
./ettubrute http://10.10.11.77/login csrf_token /usr/share/wordlists/rockyou.txt 'user=^USER^&password=^PASS^&submit=Login' admin 'Your username and password mismatch.'
The tool will automatically try to grab cookies from the login page as well. It was developed for a single PHPSESSID cookie, so multiple cookies set on the token grab might break that functionality; I'll need to test it against login pages that set multiple cookies to see how it performs.
Check releases for compiled binaries. If you'd like to compile the tool yourself, run the following:
git clone https://github.com/the-emmon/et-tu-brute
cd et-tu-brute
nimble install docopt
nim c --threads:on --opt:speed --app:console --gc:boehm -d:release ettubrute.nim
git clone https://github.com/the-emmon/et-tu-brute
cd et-tu-brute
nimble install docopt
nim c --threads:on --opt:speed --app:console -d:mingw --cpu:i386 --gc:boehm -d:release ettubrute.nim
Be sure to compile with the options listed to avoid glitches and "illegal filesystem access" crashes.
If you'd like to directly mirror the release builds, strip the executable like this:
strip ettubrute && upx --best --strip-relocs=0 ettubrute
Open an issue or a pull request if you'd like a feature implemented!
This tool utilizes Alex Boisvert's Nim port of Daniel Lemire's avxcount fast file newline counter.
