python_hacking_utils

A python module of commonly used utilities that can be included or used by itself to speed up common processes, like url encoding and decoding!

Install

pip install -r requirements.txt (potentially python -m pip install -r requirements.txt)

Usage

You can use this as a library or as a command line tool.

1. Usage as a library:
   1. python or python3 NB: hackutils.py should be in the current folder you are executing from - e.g. the current directory when running python/python3
   2. import hackutils
   3. Call function:
      • hackutils.Payload().list()
      • hackutils.Decode().url("%3c")
2. Usage as command line tool:
   1. python hackutils.py p -l
   2. python hackutils.py d -url "%3c"

Overview of functions:

All functionality is split into logical subclasses based on functionality, then into functions under that class.

These work by calling: subclass.function(data)

Example: encode.url("/")

Subclasses

• Encode / Decode

  • b32 (base32)
  • b64 (base64)
  • b64url (base64 url format)
  • url (url encoding)
  • html (html encoding)
  • hex (hex string)
  • hexint (hex integer)
  • hexweb (hex with \x infront of every hexvalue, e.g. \x61\x62\x63 for abc)
  • unicode

• Analyze

  • parquet (hadoop data storage format)

• Payload

  • list (List all payloads)
  • generate (Generate payloads with a target set - e.g. a URL or an IP)

ToDo

• Payload listing
• Payload generation
• Have tests to ensure correct functionality
• Encode/Decode only special characters
• to Hex
• to unicode
• Chars to homoglyphs
• list characters with homoglyphs
• Analyze file formats
• Look for:
  • Common file formats needing analysis
  • Common encoding / decoding
  • Common payloads & test-strings (E.G. ACAR)
