Hacking Tools, Hacker News & Cyber Security

DumpBrowserSecrets is a technically capable post-exploitation credential-harvesting tool that targets Chromium- and Gecko-based browsers to extract passwords, session cookies, OAuth refresh tokens, credit card data, autofill entries, and history. 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 call the IElevator COM interface, and returning decrypted keys to the extractor; Opera-family browsers use DPAPI extraction and Firefox uses NSS decryption. The tool is designed for red team/assumed-breach use, includes multiple evasion techniques (string obfuscation, API hashing, PPID/argument spoofing, handle duplication, custom SQLite parsing), outputs structured JSON, and presents a high-risk credential exposure vector that defenders should detect by monitoring unexpected browser process injection, headless browser instantiation, IElevator usage, and non-browser reads of browser SQLite stores.
