Hacking Tools, Hacker News & Cyber Security

DumpBrowserSecrets is a publicly documented post-exploitation credential-harvesting tool for Windows that extracts saved passwords, session cookies, OAuth refresh tokens, credit card data, autofill entries, and browsing history from major Chromium-based and Firefox browsers. It implements an App‑Bound Encryption bypass for Chrome/Edge/Brave by spawning a headless Chromium process, injecting a DLL via Early Bird APC to use the IElevator COM interface, and returning decrypted keys; 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 parsing), outputs structured JSON, and is positioned for red-team assumed‑breach testing; the report also outlines detection opportunities and mitigation recommendations.
