An important part of VIPER Lab’s mission is to create open
source tools for security practitioners to assess the security
posture of their own environments. These tools are freely
available for download. Users are strongly cautioned to use
these tools only in authorized network environments and with
permission of network owners. Please visit the VIPER Blog
and the VIPER Forum
for news, discussions, usage tips and other information about these tools.
UCSniff 2.0
New! Industry’s First IP Video Sniffer Security Assessment Tool
UCSniff 2.0 breaks new ground in open source security assessment tools with the introduction of the industry’s first IP video security assessment features. Like the original UCSniff, UCSniff enables IT managers and security practitioners to test their UC infrastructure for vulnerabilities that can lead to the unauthorized interception and recording of UC traffic, or targeted eavesdropping.
Written in C, and initially released for Linux systems, the software is freely available for anyone to download, under the GPLv3 license.
Extends UCSniff’s targeted user eavesdropping functionality to encompass IP video communications, including phone-to-phone video conferencing
Support for SCCP and RFC 3261 SIP
Automatic decode and re-construction of H.264 video codec
Automatically captures and saves video conference, into two separate AVI format video files, so that the security professional can see what both end users of the Video conference see
Reconstructs entire voice conversation into a separate, single WAV file format file
The existing features of UCSniff have been further tested and improved upon, including several bug fixes
In Learning mode, dynamically updates the IP address of phone in the event that IP address changes after phone reboot or via DHCP
Allows targeting of VoIP users based on corporate directory and/or extensions
Tracking, interception, and logging of signaling messages used for authentication to voice mail systems
Automatically captures and saves entire voice conversations to a single file that can be played back by media players
Support for G.722 and g.711 u-law compression codecs
Automated VLAN Hop and VLAN Discovery support
A VoIP Sniffer combined with a MitM redirection tool
Monitor Mode (like Wireshark)
Sniffs entire conversation even if only one phone is in source VLAN
Enhanced capability to ARP Poison hosts that have Gratuitous ARP Disabled
VideoJak
New! IP Video Communications Denial-of-Service Assessment Tool
VideoJak is the industry’s first tool for simulating denial-of-service (DoS) attacks that can disrupt IP video communications in today’s leading edge Unified Communications deployments. VideoJak illustrates how an attacker can launch a targeted DoS attack that flies under the radar of typical security measures, interfering with only the communications stream associated with the video traffic. A sister tool to UCSniff, VideoJak lists the following features:
Automatic VLAN Hop and VLAN Discovery
MitM ARP Poisoning
Interception of SCCP Video signaling messages
Selection of IP Video calls from multiple calls in progress using a menu interface
Automatic creation of custom Video payload based on private IP Video call
Targeted DoS against specific IP Video phone / extension during a call session
OAT is an Open Source Security tool designed to check the password strength of Microsoft Office Communication Server users. After a password is compromised, OAT demonstrates potential UC attacks that can be performed by legitimate users if proper security controls are not in place.
VIPER Lab created OAT because OCS and other Microsoft products are frequently being used as part of a unified communications infrastructure in many enterprises. Our mission is to help IT manager and security practitioners evaluate the security architecture of their deployments and ensure that their mission-critical communications and systems are protected.
