DumpBrowserSecrets is a post‑exploitation credential‑harvesting tool that extracts passwords, session cookies, OAuth tokens, credit card numbers, autofill data and history from major browsers (Chrome/Edge/Brave via App‑Bound Encryption bypass, Opera/Vivaldi via DPAPI, Firefox via NSS). It uses a headless Chromium process with Early Bird APC DLL injection and the IElevator COM interface to decrypt app_bound_encrypted_key for Chromium browsers, includes evasion techniques (string obfuscation, API hashing, PPID/argument spoofing, file‑handle duplication), outputs structured JSON, and is intended for red team/assumed‑breach testing but presents clear offensive utility for credential theft and cloud account takeover.
