Python script to hunt phishing kits

Phish Kit Collection

Introduction

This is the code used in our experiment to collect phishing kits at scale. This requires integrations with phishing feed providers, which may need API keys or other credentials.

Deploying to EC2

We ran our experiment using an Amazon EC2 instance. This are the basic commands to get up and running.

Install the ELK Stack

First, you need to install Elasticsearch and Kibana

# Remove Java 1.7 in favor of Java 1.8
sudo yum install java-1.8.0
sudo yum remove java-1.7.0-openjdk

# Then, install Elasticsearch
sudo rpm --import https://artifacts.elastic.co/GPG-KEY-elasticsearch

echo '[elasticsearch-5.x]
name=Elasticsearch repository for 5.x packages
baseurl=https://artifacts.elastic.co/packages/5.x/yum
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=https://artifacts.elastic.co/GPG-KEY-elasticsearch
enabled=1
autorefresh=1
type=rpm-md' | sudo tee /etc/yum.repos.d/elasticsearch.repo > /dev/null

sudo yum install elasticsearch
sudo chkconfig --add elasticsearch

# Start Elasticsearch
sudo -i service elasticsearch start


# Install Kibana
echo '[kibana-5.x]
name=Kibana repository for 5.x packages
baseurl=https://artifacts.elastic.co/packages/5.x/yum
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=https://artifacts.elastic.co/GPG-KEY-elasticsearch
enabled=1
autorefresh=1
type=rpm-md' | sudo tee /etc/yum.repos.d/kibana.repo > /dev/null

sudo yum install kibana
sudo chkconfig --add kibana

# Start Kibana
sudo -i service kibana start

Create our Indexes

To index values in Elasticsearch, we have to create our indexes. We can do that with this command:

curl -XPUT localhost:9200/samples -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d @es_index.json

Download the Code

To get the phish_collect code, clone the repository from Github:

git clone https://github.com/duo-labs/phish_collect.git

Install Python Requirements

Next, you need to install all the requirements:

virtualenv .env
source .env/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt

Setup the Crontab

Since we want to run the script every 10 minutes, we need to add the following to our crontab:

*/10 * * * * cd phish_collect && ./run.sh

That's all there is to it! Now new samples will be downloaded and indexed to Kibana.
