Summary | 0003610: FeatherDuster - An automated, modular cryptanalysis tool; i.e., a Weapon of Math Destruction | ||||
Description | FeatherDuster is a tool designed for automating and simplifying cryptanalysis work. It is capable of analyzing encrypted data from a black box perspective and describing weaknesses suggested by statistical properties of the data being analyzed. It is capable of suggesting which of its available modules apply to the data being analyzed, and even has an autopwn command to automatically run relevant modules. Its core, called Cryptanalib, is a Python module containing a number of useful functions for cryptanalysts who have some knowledge about cryptanalysis, reducing the coding work in exploiting common crypto flaws such as secret-suffix ECB chosen plaintext attacks from hours to minutes, as well as reducing the necessary level of expertise needed to write crypto attack tools. | ||||
It's worth noting that to date, no cryptographic exploitation tools exist in Kali except for PadBuster, which is a single-purpose tool. |
|
Official repo is at https://github.com/nccgroup/featherduster Also, there's an autopwn mode, so if you don't know what you're doing, it very well might break encrypted data for you when you have no idea how to do it yourself. Any updates on this? |
