Hypothetical USB hack

Recommended Posts

Hypothetically, would any of you be interested in starting some kind of project to "help" torrents seed. As a part of the USB drive hack, i move to install a hidden version of a torrent client that could be remotely control using irc/something else maybe that would seed.... hak5 torrents :D

Somewhat illegal but PoC all the way!

hypetheticly I'm working on an IRC bot like programt hat does torrent. It utalizes U torrent and mirc and essencialy, you tell it what torrents to download and it will keep them running its very nice, but in alpha WWAY WAY WAY alpha stages, pm me for latesst alpha, I will NOT relise it public for a while since its not tested, but if your really want soemthign that would downlaod torrents like I said PM me I'll hook you up

Interesting. Malicious. None the less, interesting. Sadly Hak5 is no longer distributed over torrents, not that we'd want to have any part in zombied machines seeding, but again, interesting.

So what's to stop you from doing something similar except with folding@home, or rainbow table generation, or even better, just simply add the machines idle resources to a cluster. Of course bandwidth would be a limitation but imagine having a "Evil Hak5 Cluster for Goodness"....."wait, where does the evil come in?"

Well, Brainkill and I have talked about doing a rainbow table distributer, as well as an RSA cracker distributer. THe problem with rainbow tables is that each table takes leik 10 day, evil comptuers arn't on for 10 days. As for maliciousness, well rember kids winners don't do warez so it would be for shows liek Hak.5 and movies before 1927 (movies before 1927 is a registered trademark of unpluggedpodcast.com I don't know y it is it jsut is)

It has exploded into that.

That's why Im glad the GUI/Framework has not come out to the public.

Sometimes full disclosure can be a bad thing. I wonder if skiddies are just downloading Amish's payload, inserting said USB drive and saying they hacked the gibson.

This is why I am tempted to make AntiHak5USB.exe. :)

All this USB 'hack' talk seems to be taking Hak.5 into a script kiddy zone.

Example:

1. Download USB stuff.

2. Copying USB stuff to USB drive.

3. Plug USB drive into PC.

4. Own PC.

5. Eject jumpdrive and continue on hax0ring teh noobies

Semi-intresting idea tho, I just acutally bought another u3 jumpdrive :_)

All I have is a laptop harddrive in an enclosure, but was thinking of buying a U3 one just to play around with it.

offtopic-

In my opnion, the knowledge of a white hat is great knowledge. Weather you use it correctly or not its your choice.

Some people can handle learning some black hat things, and not abuse them, while that is all other users look for. I would rather learn about the security aspect rather then the other aspects.

again, (damn how many places are you going to post this?) I recommend against the folding@home for hak5 addition to the payload. it has the potential to give hak5 a bad name and im sure the folding@hak5 team wouldnt like that. so yeah, creative, but maybe not so good. damn i sound like a broken record.

T_T reading all this does make the U3 tech and Hak5 mods to it all sound so skiddie, which is rather sad, most of the programers ive experienced on this site are leet, though sadly there fun is being turned into 12yr olds doing stupid things on skool PC's.

Im currently running a USBHak anti-virus that i put together (props to the gritty britt for the idea).

Though atm its just a process, and all minipulation needs to be done via the script, as well as new USBHak's need to be add via the script, so later when i have sum time ill add a settings GUI, and possibly a definitions import, and hand it out for sum testing. Hope to bring sum white on all this black.

This is very skiddy, but by discovering skiddy style attacks, we can also defend ourselves from them. Especially with todays world, where peple find it fun to spam, troll and flame, there are more and more script kiddies, and the first step to protecting yourself form them, is to find possible attacks. By fully disclosing attacks such as these, we are also giving people a chance to protect themselves.
