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**:
```python
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)
```
For more information: [https://github.com/jrmdev/ctf-writeups/tree/master/bsidessf-2017/dnscap](https://github.com/jrmdev/ctf-writeups/tree/master/bsidessf-2017/dnscap)\
[https://github.com/iagox86/dnscat2/blob/master/doc/protocol.md](https://github.com/iagox86/dnscat2/blob/master/doc/protocol.md)
There is a script that works with Python3: [https://github.com/josemlwdf/DNScat-Decoder](https://github.com/josemlwdf/DNScat-Decoder)
```
python3 dnscat_decoder.py sample.pcap bad_domain
```
