Installation of Thug (a Python low-interaction honeyclient) on Ubuntu/Debian

Posted: May 21st, 2012 | Author: | Filed under: IT Related | Tags: , , , , , , , | 2 Comments »

Thug is a Python low-interaction honeyclient aimed at mimicking the behaviour of a web browser in order to detect and emulate malicious contents. [1]

I’m impressed with the artwork of @buffer AKA Angelo in his previous project, phoneyc and started to give a detail look and hacks on the project. While only 1 hack finished on my side, Angelo already release a brand new honeyclient based on Python + V8 JS engine called Thug. What a wonderful idea + talent

Here are some useful information that might help you to build and compile Thug + V8 on Ubuntu/Debian machine:

 

    • Install some dependencies
sudo apt-get install python-setuptools build-essential git-core subversion scons python-chardet python-html5lib libboost-python-dev libboost-dev python-pefile python-httplib2 python-cssutils libboost-thread-dev libc6-dev libreadline-dev libboost-system-dev
sudo easy_install beautifulsoup4
sudo apt-get install python-magic python-pydot
    • Obtain the codes via svn and git
cd ~
git clone https://github.com/buffer/thug.git
cd ~/thug/
svn checkout http://v8.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ v8
    • Apply the Thug’s patch for V8
cp patches/V8-patch* .
patch -p0 < V8-patch1.diff
patch -p0 < V8-patch2.diff
rm V8-patch*
    • Build and compile python wrapper for V8. This process will compile the V8 engine at the same time
cd /tmp/
svn checkout http://pyv8.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ pyv8
export V8_HOME=$HOME/thug/v8
cd pyv8 &amp;&amp; python setup.py build
sudo python setup.py install
    • If you came across the following warning, simply ignore it
#######################################################
#  WARNING: Building V8 with SCons is deprecated and  #
#  will not work much longer. Please switch to using  #
#  the GYP-based build now. Instructions are at       #
#  http://code.google.com/p/v8/wiki/BuildingWithGYP.  #
#######################################################
    • Now test your installation
cd ~/thug/src
python thug.py
    • With the previous test, you will get something similar to this:
