Hacking Tools, Hacker News & Cyber Security

DumpBrowserSecrets is a Windows post-exploitation tool that harvests credentials and session data from major browsers (Chrome, Edge, Brave, Opera variants, Vivaldi, Firefox). It bypasses Chrome's App-Bound Encryption by injecting a DLL into a headless Chromium process to use the IElevator COM interface, supports DPAPI and NSS decryption where applicable, and includes evasion techniques (string obfuscation, API hashing, PPID/argument spoofing, file-handle duplication). The tool outputs structured JSON for red-team or operator use and the report highlights detection opportunities and mitigations such as monitoring IElevator calls and non-browser access to browser SQLite databases.
