Hacking Tools, Hacker News & Cyber Security

DumpBrowserSecrets is a Windows post-exploitation tool that extracts browser-stored secrets (saved credentials, session cookies, OAuth refresh tokens, credit cards, autofill and history) from Chromium-based browsers and Firefox. It implements a sophisticated App-Bound Encryption bypass for Chrome/Edge/Brave by spawning a headless Chromium process, injecting a DLL via Early Bird APC to call the IElevator COM interface, and returns decrypted keys to locally parse and decrypt browser SQLite/JSON stores; Opera-family browsers use DPAPI extraction and Firefox uses NSS decryption. The tool includes operational evasion features (string obfuscation, API hashing, PPID/argument spoofing, handle duplication, custom SQLite parser), outputs structured JSON for red-team use, and poses a substantive risk for cloud account takeover and lateral movement if misused.
