DNSCat pcap analysis

If you have pcap with data being exfiltrated by DNSCat without using encryption, you can find the exfiltrated content.

You only need to know that the first 9 bytes are not real data but are related to the C&C communication:

from scapy.all import rdpcap, DNSQR, DNSRR
import struct 

f = ""
last = ""
for p in rdpcap('ch21.pcap'):
	if p.haslayer(DNSQR) and not p.haslayer(DNSRR):

		qry = p[DNSQR].qname.replace(".jz-n-bs.local.","").strip().split(".")
		qry = ''.join(_.decode('hex') for _ in qry)[9:]
		if last != qry:
			print(qry)
			f += qry
		last = qry

#print(f)
