bWAPP
an extremely buggy web app !
bWAPP, or a buggy web application, is a free and open source deliberately insecure web application. bWAPP helps security enthusiasts, developers and students to discover and to prevent web vulnerabilities. bWAPP prepares one to conduct successful penetration testing and ethical hacking projects. What makes bWAPP so unique? Well, it has over 100 web bugs! It covers all major known web vulnerabilities, including all risks from the OWASP Top 10 project. The focus is not just on one specific issue... bWAPP is covering a wide range of vulnerabilities! bWAPP is a PHP application that uses a MySQL database. It can be hosted on Linux/Windows with Apache/IIS and MySQL. It is supported on WAMP or XAMPP. Another possibility is to download bee-box, a custom VM pre-installed with bWAPP. This project is part of the ITSEC GAMES project. You can find more about the ITSEC GAMES and bWAPP projects on our blog. For security-testing and educational purposes only! Cheers Malik Mesellem -

emp3r0r
Linux/Windows post-exploitation framework made by linux user
A post-exploitation framework for Linux/Windows. Initially, emp3r0r was developed as one of my weaponizing experiments. It was a learning process for me trying to implement common Linux adversary techniques and some of my original ideas. So, what makes emp3r0r different? First of all, it is the first C2 framework that targets Linux platform including the capability of using any other tools through it. Take a look at the features for more valid reasons to use it. -

Ligolo-ng
An advanced, yet simple, tunneling/pivoting tool
Ligolo-ng is a simple, lightweight and fast tool that allows pentesters to establish tunnels from a reverse TCP/TLS connection using a tun interface (without the need of SOCKS). When running the relay/proxy server, a tun interface is used, packets sent to this interface are translated and then transmitted to the agent's remote network. You need to download the Wintun driver (used by WireGuard) and place the wintun.dll in the same folder as Ligolo. You can listen to ports on the agent and redirect connections to your control/proxy server. You can easily hit more than 100 Mbits/sec. Here is a test using iperf from a 200Mbits/s server to a 200Mbits/s connection. -

Merlin HTTP/2
Merlin is a cross-platform post-exploitation HTTP/2 Command
Merlin is a cross-platform post-exploitation Command & Control server and agent written in Go. The Merlin server is a self-contained command line program that requires no installation. You just simply download it and run it. The command-line interface only works great if it will be used by a single operator at a time. The Merlin agent can be controlled through Mythic, which features a web-based user interface that enables multiplayer support, and a slew of other features inherent to the project. -

JPassword Recovery Tool
Password recovery tool for compressed archives and md5, sha-1/2 hashes
This is a simple but sophisticated open source password recovery tool for M$ Windows, it can effectively 'crack' any password protected archive that can be decompressed by 7zip given enough time and resources. It can also bruteforce MD2, MD5, SHA-1 and SHA-2 hashes (SHA-256, SHA-384, SHA-512), CRC16, CRC32, CRC64 and Adler32 hashed passwords for both Windows, and Linux. It requires java 7u4 and above, and 7-zip v9.20 and up for archive recovery. Keeping these above applications up to date ensures peak performance. if you have any ideas, bugs, tips/improvements and/or suggestions please dont hesitate to contact me NB AS OF V1.07 PLEASE MAKE SURE 'resources' FOLDER IS IN THE SAME DIRECTORY AS THE JPasswordRecoveryTool.jar Known Bugs(v1.09): -although md2 was selceted by default for hash recovery if you did not slected another value and reselect md2 it would use md5 by default -

Password Guessing Framework
A Framework for Comparing Password Guessing Strategies
The Password Guessing Framework is an open source tool to provide an automated and reliable way to compare password guessers. It can help to identify individual strengths and weaknesses of a guesser, its modes of operation or even the underlying guessing strategies. Therefor, it gathers information about how many passwords from an input file (password leak) have been cracked in relation to the amount of generated guesses. Subsequent to the guessing process an analysis of the cracked passwords is performed. In general though, any guesser that prints the password candidates via STDOUT can be used with the framework. The aforementioned password guessing / password cracking software is not part nor shipped with the framework and need to be installed separately. -

Shennina
Automating Host Exploitation with AI
Shennina is an automated host exploitation framework. The mission of the project is to fully automate the scanning, vulnerability scanning/analysis, and exploitation using Artificial Intelligence. Shennina is integrated with Metasploit and Nmap for performing the attacks, as well as being integrated with an in-house Command-and-Control Server for exfiltrating data from compromised machines automatically. Shennina scans a set of input targets for available network services, uses its AI engine to identify recommended exploits for the attacks, and then attempts to test and attack the targets. If the attack succeeds, Shennina proceeds with the post-exploitation phase. The AI engine is initially trained against live targets to learn reliable exploits against remote services. Shennina also supports a "Heuristics" mode for identfying recommended exploits. -
