[**RootedCON**](https://www.rootedcon.com/) is the most relevant cybersecurity event in **Spain** and one of the most important in **Europe**. With **the mission of promoting technical knowledge**, this congress is a boiling meeting point for technology and cybersecurity professionals in every discipline.

{% hint style="info" %}
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.
{% endhint %}
## 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)
## Extract Information
The following tools are useful to extract statistics, files, etc.
### Wireshark
{% hint style="info" %}
**If you are going to analyze a PCAP you basically must to know how to use Wireshark**
{% endhint %}
You can find some Wireshark tricks in:
{% content-ref url="wireshark-tricks.md" %}
[wireshark-tricks.md](wireshark-tricks.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}
### 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:
{% content-ref url="../partitions-file-systems-carving/file-data-carving-recovery-tools.md" %}
[file-data-carving-recovery-tools.md](../partitions-file-systems-carving/file-data-carving-recovery-tools.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}
### 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:

[malware-analysis.md](../malware-analysis.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}
## 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
10.55.100.100 49778 65.52.108.225 443 tcp - 86222.365445

10.55.100.110 60168 40.77.229.82 443 tcp - 86160.119664
#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
10.55.100.100 65.52.108.225 443 tcp 86222.4
10.55.100.107 111.221.29.113 443 tcp 86220.1
10.55.100.110 40.77.229.82 443 tcp 86160.1
#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
10.55.100.100 65.52.108.225 1 86222.4
10.55.100.107 111.221.29.113 1 86220.1
10.55.100.110 40.77.229.82 134 86160.1
#Check if any IP is connecting to 1.1.1.1
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
# RITA
#Something similar can be done with the tool rita
rita show-long-connections -H --limit 10 zeek_logs

#Get the number of times each domain was requested and get the top 10
cat dns.log | zeek-cut query | sort | uniq | rev | cut -d '.' -f 1-2 | rev | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr | head -n 10
#Get all the IPs
cat dns.log | zeek-cut id.orig_h query | grep 'example\.com' | cut -f 1 | sort | uniq -c
#Sort the most common DNS record request (should be A)
cat dns.log | zeek-cut qtype_name | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr
