# Pcap Inspection
|
||
|
||
{{#include ../../../banners/hacktricks-training.md}}
|
||
|
||
> [!TIP]
|
||
> A note about **PCAP** vs **PCAPNG**: there are two versions of the PCAP file format; **PCAPNG is newer and not supported by all tools**. You may need to convert a file from PCAPNG to PCAP using Wireshark or another compatible tool, in order to work with it in some other tools.
|
||
|
||
## Online tools for pcaps
|
||
|
||
- If the header of your pcap is **broken** you should try to **fix** it using: [http://f00l.de/hacking/**pcapfix.php**](http://f00l.de/hacking/pcapfix.php)
|
||
- Extract **information** and search for **malware** inside a pcap in [**PacketTotal**](https://packettotal.com)
|
||
- Search for **malicious activity** using [**www.virustotal.com**](https://www.virustotal.com) and [**www.hybrid-analysis.com**](https://www.hybrid-analysis.com)
|
||
- **Full pcap analysis from the browser in** [**https://apackets.com/**](https://apackets.com/)
|
||
|
||
## Extract Information
|
||
|
||
The following tools are useful to extract statistics, files, etc.
|
||
|
||
### Wireshark
|
||
|
||
> [!TIP]
|
||
> **If you are going to analyze a PCAP you basically must to know how to use Wireshark**
|
||
|
||
You can find some Wireshark tricks in:

|
||
|
||
### [**https://apackets.com/**](https://apackets.com/)
|
||
|
||
Pcap analysis from the browser.
|
||
|
||
### Xplico Framework
|
||
|
||
[**Xplico** ](https://github.com/xplico/xplico)_(only linux)_ can **analyze** a **pcap** and extract information from it. For example, from a pcap file Xplico, extracts each email (POP, IMAP, and SMTP protocols), all HTTP contents, each VoIP call (SIP), FTP, TFTP, and so on.
|
||
|
||
**Install**
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
sudo bash -c 'echo "deb http://repo.xplico.org/ $(lsb_release -s -c) main" /etc/apt/sources.list'
|
||
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 791C25CE
|
||
sudo apt-get update
|
||
sudo apt-get install xplico
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Run**
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
/etc/init.d/apache2 restart
|
||
/etc/init.d/xplico start
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Access to _**127.0.0.1:9876**_ with credentials _**xplico:xplico**_
|
||
|
||
Then create a **new case**, create a **new session** inside the case and **upload the pcap** file.
|
||
|
||
### NetworkMiner
|
||
|
||
Like Xplico it is a tool to **analyze and extract objects from pcaps**. It has a free edition that you can **download** [**here**](https://www.netresec.com/?page=NetworkMiner). It works with **Windows**.\
|
||
This tool is also useful to get **other information analysed** from the packets in order to be able to know what was happening in a **quicker** way.
|
||
|
||
### NetWitness Investigator
|
||
|
||
You can download [**NetWitness Investigator from here**](https://www.rsa.com/en-us/contact-us/netwitness-investigator-freeware) **(It works in Windows)**.\
|
||
This is another useful tool that **analyses the packets** and sorts the information in a useful way to **know what is happening inside**.
|
||
|
||
### [BruteShark](https://github.com/odedshimon/BruteShark)
|
||
|
||
- Extracting and encoding usernames and passwords (HTTP, FTP, Telnet, IMAP, SMTP...)
|
||
- Extract authentication hashes and crack them using Hashcat (Kerberos, NTLM, CRAM-MD5, HTTP-Digest...)
|
||
- Build a visual network diagram (Network nodes & users)
|
||
- Extract DNS queries
|
||
- Reconstruct all TCP & UDP Sessions
|
||
- File Carving
|
||
|
||
### Capinfos
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
capinfos capture.pcap
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Ngrep
|
||
|
||
If you are **looking** for **something** inside the pcap you can use **ngrep**. Here is an example using the main filters:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
ngrep -I packets.pcap "^GET" "port 80 and tcp and host 192.168 and dst host 192.168 and src host 192.168"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Carving
|
||
|
||
Using common carving techniques can be useful to extract files and information from the pcap:

||
|
||
|
||
{{#ref}}
|
||
../partitions-file-systems-carving/file-data-carving-recovery-tools.md
|
||
{{#endref}}
|
||
|
||
### Capturing credentials
|
||
|
||
You can use tools like [https://github.com/lgandx/PCredz](https://github.com/lgandx/PCredz) to parse credentials from a pcap or a live interface.
|
||
|
||
## Check Exploits/Malware
|
||
|
||
### Suricata
|
||
|
||
**Install and setup**
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
apt-get install suricata
|
||
apt-get install oinkmaster
|
||
echo "url = http://rules.emergingthreats.net/open/suricata/emerging.rules.tar.gz" >> /etc/oinkmaster.conf
|
||
oinkmaster -C /etc/oinkmaster.conf -o /etc/suricata/rules
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Check pcap**
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
suricata -r packets.pcap -c /etc/suricata/suricata.yaml -k none -v -l log
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### YaraPcap
|
||
|
||
[**YaraPCAP**](https://github.com/kevthehermit/YaraPcap) is a tool that
|
||
|
||
- Reads a PCAP File and Extracts Http Streams.
|
||
- gzip deflates any compressed streams
|
||
- Scans every file with yara
|
||
- Writes a report.txt
|
||
- Optionally saves matching files to a Dir
|
||
|
||
### Malware Analysis
|
||
|
||
Check if you can find any fingerprint of a known malware:

## Zeek
|
||
|
||
> [Zeek](https://docs.zeek.org/en/master/about.html) is a passive, open-source network traffic analyzer. Many operators use Zeek as a Network Security Monitor (NSM) to support investigations of suspicious or malicious activity. Zeek also supports a wide range of traffic analysis tasks beyond the security domain, including performance measurement and troubleshooting.
|
||
|
||
Basically, logs created by `zeek` aren't **pcaps**. Therefore you will need to use **other tools** to analyse the logs where the **information** about the pcaps are.
|
||
|
||
### Connections Info
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
#Get info about longest connections (add "grep udp" to see only udp traffic)
|
||
#The longest connection might be of malware (constant reverse shell?)
|
||
cat conn.log | zeek-cut id.orig_h id.orig_p id.resp_h id.resp_p proto service duration | sort -nrk 7 | head -n 10

|
||
#Improve the metrics by summing up the total duration time for connections that have the same destination IP and Port.
|
||
cat conn.log | zeek-cut id.orig_h id.resp_h id.resp_p proto duration | awk 'BEGIN{ FS="\t" } { arr[$1 FS $2 FS $3 FS $4] += $5 } END{ for (key in arr) printf "%s%s%s\n", key, FS, arr[key] }' | sort -nrk 5 | head -n 10

#Get the number of connections summed up per each line
|
||
cat conn.log | zeek-cut id.orig_h id.resp_h duration | awk 'BEGIN{ FS="\t" } { arr[$1 FS $2] += $3; count[$1 FS $2] += 1 } END{ for (key in arr) printf "%s%s%s%s%s\n", key, FS, count[key], FS, arr[key] }' | sort -nrk 4 | head -n 10

|
||
cat conn.log | zeek-cut id.orig_h id.resp_h id.resp_p proto service | grep '1.1.1.1' | sort | uniq -c
|

#Get number of connections per source IP, dest IP and dest Port
|

cat conn.log | zeek-cut id.orig_h id.resp_h id.resp_p proto | awk 'BEGIN{ FS="\t" } { arr[$1 FS $2 FS $3 FS $4] += 1 } END{ for (key in arr) printf "%s%s%s\n", key, FS, arr[key] }' | sort -nrk 5 | head -n 10
