What is Karkinos?

Karkinos is a light-weight 'Swiss Army Knife' for penetration testing and/or hacking CTF's. Currently, Karkinos offers the following:

• Encoding/Decoding characters
• Encrypting/Decrypting text or files
• Reverse shell handling
• Cracking and generating hashes

Dependencies

• Any server capable of hosting PHP; tested with Apache Server
• Tested with PHP 7.4.9
• Python3
  Make sure it is in your path as:
  Windows: python
  Linux: python3
  If it is not, please change the commands in includes/pid.php
• pip3
• Raspberry Pi Zero friendly :) (crack hashes at your own risk)

Installing

This installation guide assumes you have all the dependencies.

Linux/BSD

1. git clone https://github.com/helich0pper/Karkinos.git
2. cd Karkinos
3. pip3 install -r requirements.txt
4. cd wordlists && tar -xf passlist.zip You can also unzip it manually using file explorer if tar is not installed. Just make sure passlist.txt is in wordlists directory.
5. Add extension=php_sqlite3.dll to your php.ini file.
   If you don't know where to find this, refer to the PHP docs.
6. Thats it! Now just host it using your preferred web server or run: php -S 127.0.0.1:8888 in the Karkinos directory.
   Important: using port 5555 will conflict with the reverse shell handler server
   If you insist on using port 5555, change the reverse shell handler server PORT value in /bin/Server/app.py Line 88
   Important: using port 5556 will conflict with the directory and file busting server
   If you insist on using port 5556, change the directory and file busting server PORT value in /bin/Busting/app.py Line 111

Windows

1. git clone https://github.com/helich0pper/Karkinos.git

Home Menu

Landing page and quick access menu.

User stats are displayed here. Currently, the stats recorded are only the total hashes and hash types cracked successfully.

Encoding/Decoding

This page allows you to encode/decode in common formats (more may be added soon)

Encrypt/Decrypt

Encrypting and decrypting text or files is made easy and is fully trusted since it is done locally.

Modules

More modules will be added.

Reverse Shell Handling

Reverse shells can be captured and interacted with on this page.

Create a listener instance

Configure the listener

Generating Hashes

Karkinos can generate commonly used hashes such as:

• MD5
• SHA1
• SHA256
• SHA512
  
  
  

Cracking Hashes

Karkinos offers the option to simultaneously crack hashes using a built-in wordlist consisting of over 15 million common and breached passwords. This list can easily be modified and/or completely replaced.

Future Work

Pull requests and bug reports are always appreciated.
Below are features to be added/fixed:

• Creating a Wiki page to help customize Karkinos or troubleshoot common issues
