Peetch - An eBPF Playground


peetch is a collection of tools aimed at experimenting with different aspects of eBPF to bypass TLS protocol protections.

Currently, peetch includes two subcommands. The first called dump aims to sniff network traffic by associating information about the source process with each packet. The second called tls allows to identify processes using OpenSSL to extract cryptographic keys.

Combined, these two commands make it possible to decrypt TLS exchanges recorded in the PCAPng format.


Installation

peetch relies on several dependencies including non-merged modifications of bcc and Scapy. A Docker image can be easily built in order to easily test peetch using the following command:

docker build -t quarkslab/peetch .

Commands Walk Through

The following examples assume that you used the following command to enter the Docker image and launch examples within it:

docker run --privileged --network host --mount type=bind,source=/sys,target=/sys --mount type=bind,source=/proc,target=/proc --rm -it quarkslab/peetch

dump

This sub-command gives you the ability to sniff packets using an eBPF TC classifier and to retrieve the corresponding PID and process names with:

peetch dump
curl/1289291 - Ether / IP / TCP 10.211.55.10:53052 > 208.97.177.124:https S / Padding
curl/1289291 - Ether / IP / TCP 208.97.177.124:https > 10.211.55.10:53052 SA / Padding
curl/1289291 - Ether / IP / TCP 10.211.55.10:53052 > 208.97.177.124:https A / Padding
curl/1289291 - Ether / IP / TCP 10.211.55.10:53052 > 208.97.177.124:https PA / Raw / Padding
curl/1289291 - Ether / IP / TCP 208.97.177.124:https > 10.211.55.10:53052 A / Padding

Note that for demonstration purposes, dump will only capture IPv4 based TCP segments.

For convenience, the captured packets can be store to PCAPng along with process information using --write:

peetch dump --write peetch.pcapng
^C

This PCAPng can easily be manipulated with Wireshark or Scapy:

scapy
>>> l = rdpcap("peetch.pcapng")
>>> l[0]
<Ether dst=00:1c:42:00:00:18 src=00:1c:42:54:f3:34 type=IPv4 |<IP version=4 ihl=5 tos=0x0 len=60 id=11088 flags=DF frag=0 ttl=64 proto=tcp chksum=0x4bb1 src=10.211.55.10 dst=208.97.177.124 |<TCP sport=53054 dport=https seq=631406526 ack=0 dataofs=10 reserved=0 flags=S window=64240 chksum=0xc3e9 urgptr=0 options=[('MSS', 1460), ('SAckOK', b''), ('Timestamp', (1272423534, 0)), ('NOP', None), ('WScale', 7)] |<Padding load='\x00\x00' |>>>>
>>> l[0].comment
b'curl/1289909'

tls

This sub-command aims at identifying process that uses OpenSSl and makes it is to dump several things like plaintext and secrets.

By default, peetch tls will only display one line per process, the --directions argument makes it possible to display the exchanges messages:

peetch tls --directions
<- curl (1291078) 208.97.177.124/443 TLS1.2 ECDHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256
> curl (1291078) 208.97.177.124/443 TLS1.-1 ECDHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256

Displaying OpenSSL buffer content is achieved with --content.

peetch tls --content
<- curl (1290608) 208.97.177.124/443 TLS1.2 ECDHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256

The --secrets arguments will display TLS Master Secrets extracted from memory. The following example leverages --write to write master secrets to discuss to simplify decruypting TLS messages with Scapy:

$ (sleep 5; curl https://www.perdu.com/?name=highly%20secret%20information --tls-max 1.2 -http1.1) &

# peetch tls --write &
curl (1293232) 208.97.177.124/443 TLS1.2 ECDHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256

# peetch dump --write traffic.pcapng
^C

# Add the master secret to a PCAPng file
$ editcap --inject-secrets tls,1293232-master_secret.log traffic.pcapng traffic-ms.pcapng

$ scapy
>>> load_layer("tls")
>>> conf.tls_session_enable = True
>>> l = rdpcap("traffic-ms.pcapng")
>>> l[13][TLS].msg
[<TLSApplicationData data='GET /?name=highly%20secret%20information HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: www.perdu.com\r\nUser-Agent: curl/7.68.0\r\nAccept: */*\r\n\r\n' |>]

Limitations

By design, peetch only supports OpenSSL and TLS 1.2.
