Installation

You can install the whole framework as follows:

• Install rupture.

rupture/ $ ./install all

or you can also install each module separately, as below.

Javascript

Rupture uses Javascript for communication between the client code and the realtime server. Client code is compiled using babel and server code is run on Node.js.

Injection

• Install injection.

rupture$ ./install injection

Client

• Install client.

rupture$ ./install client

Python

Rupture uses Python for the Command & Control server. Communication between js realtime server and Python backend is performed with a Django API endpoint.

Backend

• Install backend.

rupture/ $ ./install backend

Sniffer

• Install sniffer.

rupture/ $ ./install sniffer

Execution

Backend

• Edit following configuration scripts:
  • rupture/backend/target_config.yml
  • rupture/backend/victim_config.yml
• Setup backend.

rupture $ ./rupture -s

• Deploy backend.

rupture $ ./rupture --backend

Realtime

• Deploy realtime.

rupture $ ./rupture --realtime

Sniffer

• Deploy sniffer.

rupture $ ./rupture --sniffer

Attack

• You can also deploy backend, realtime and sniffer modules all together:

rupture/ $ sudo ./rupture --attack

Note: Sniffer deployment - either standalone or all together with 'attack' - may need elevated privileges, since it requires access to network interface.

Client

• Client code is in following directory:

  • ~/.rupture/client/client_

  where is the victim's id in the backend database.

• Open the following test HTML page in browser:

  • ~/.rupture/client/client_/test.html

  or inject client code in HTTP responses:

~/.rupture/client/client_<id> $ ./inject.sh
