A simple bash script for searching the extracted or mounted firmware file system.
It will search through the extracted or mounted firmware file system for things of interest such as:
- etc/shadow and etc/passwd
- list out the etc/ssl directory
- search for SSL related files such as .pem, .crt, etc.
- search for configuration files
- look for script files
- search for other .bin files
- look for keywords such as admin, password, remote, etc.
- search for common web servers used on IoT devices
- search for common binaries such as ssh, tftp, dropbear, etc.
- search for URLs, email addresses and IP addresses
- NOTE: Some of the data written to the file may be quite verbose. It that case, the data can be reviewed and then deleted if desired from the file.
- If you wish to use the static code analysis portion of the script, please install eslint:
npm i -g eslint
./firmwalker {path to root file system} {path for firmwalker.txt}
- Example:
./firmwalker linksys/fmk/rootfs ../firmwalker.txt
- A file
firmwalker.txt
will be created in the same directory as the script file unless you specify a different filename as the second argument - Do not put the firmwalker.sh file inside the directory to be searched, this will cause the script to search itself and the file it is creating
chmod 0700 firmwalker.sh
- Have a look under 'data' where the checks live or add eslint rules - http://eslint.org/docs/rules/ to eslintrc.json
- squashfs zip file containing files from random extracted router firmware. Firmwalker can be run against this file system.
