Toolbox for VulnDetect

Tom · 31 Jul 2018, 07:46

@olli_s As far as I can tell it is part of LastPass, it seems like most, but perhaps not all, users of LastPass has it.
I can give you the file, but I don't think it is super important, since that file isn't useful, it was just to quickly test a bunch of useful files and less useful files.

Is GetAppDetails ony for 64bit Windows?

OLLI_S · 28 Oct 2018, 09:34

At the moment yes, but you are right: I also should compile a 32-bit version.
Do you want to test the current un-released version with many more features?

OLLI_S · 28 Oct 2018, 14:19

@Anselm I added some more build modes in my programming IDE and now I am able to build a 32-Bit and a 64-Bit version of the app.
Do you want to test the current un-released version with many more features?

Today I released Version 3.0 of the Toolbox for VulnDetect with many new features!.
Please note that the app was renamed from GetAppDetails for VulnDetect to Toolbox for VulnDetect.
If you want to see what has changed, please see the Tab "About" in the Toolbox.

Hi Olli,

Thanks a lot for this toolbox.

Can you please add the way to report icons? In the toolbox or a link.

Thanks and regards.

Can you please specify what exactly you need?
A way to extract the icon from an exe file?

GregAlexandre · 24 May 2019, 19:32

@OLLI_S
Yes, a way to extract the icon from an exe file. Even if you redirect to another tool.
Regards.

I already posted this topic many months ago:
https://vulndetect.org/topic/155/please-read-before-posting-new-detection-issues

Does this help you?

GregAlexandre · 25 May 2019, 18:24

@OLLI_S Yes, this helps.
I now remember why I did not download these tools: their last version is very old! So one can think that these projects have no more support. This does not sound good for security.
Regards.

OLLI_S · 25 May 2019, 18:41

Personally I would suggest to use IcoFX.

GregAlexandre · 25 May 2019, 18:43

@OLLI_S The more recent, that is what I did. I am sending Tom required icons
Thanks a lot for you help!

GregAlexandre · 8 Jun 2019, 11:59

@OLLI_S Free IcoFx is vulnerable. Any suggestion in order to be able to help Tom with icons ?

Tom · 8 Jun 2019, 18:05

@GregAlexandre
VulnDetect detects both NirSoft IconsExtract and IcoFX.
Remember, it is only the older (portable) versions of IcoFX that are vulnerable, if you install the latest, then there is no issues.
If you find another tool, then let me know and we will add detection for that.

GregAlexandre · 10 Jun 2019, 12:35

@Tom I removed free and portable IcoFx as it is vulnerable.
Next time I will use NirSoft IconsExtract even if I do not like using unsupported / inactive oldies project as no one but hackers know their security status.
Regards.

GregAlexandre · 14 Sept 2019, 14:12

@GregAlexandre :
To extract icons I now use Quick Any2Ico : https://www.carifred.com/quick_any2ico/

@OLLI_S : It seems that you did not updated the site with your latest toolbox?
Still in beta?
Will you sign your .exe ?

It is still in Beta because I need to implement some features (smaller changes).

And I am waiting for a new version of Quick Any2Ico that detects the original size of the icon in the EXE file (contacted the developer but no reply yet).

I have no idea what is needed to sign an application (stopped programming 10 years ago and started it again for the Toolbox).

GregAlexandre · 16 Jun 2020, 22:27

@OLLI_S ; May I suggest that you release your version even if not perfect.
Agile way of life.
You have to get a valid pair of key to sign code*. Then you use the private key to sign your code. The way you do it is depending of you compiler. I know to do it for macros. And more than 10 years ago I knew how to do it with Visual Studio (was it Studio ?). Quite sure you will find this very quickly in help of your compiler.

you can get needed keys at Cacert if you are assured by some assurers. Only recognize if you trust Cacert root but free and better than nothing.

@OLLI_S Just wanted to officially inform about some upcoming and breaking changes to the agent.

Well, breaking for the Toolbox, but not for anything else, as far as we can tell.

With the upcoming major release of the agent, it will no longer be possible to run the --immediate in the same as way as before.

The reason is simple: It doesn't make sense, because the inspection data returned by the agent are wrong, because the agent runs in the wrong context.

Instead, the --immediate will be changed to send a request for a new inspection task to the backend. Within 1 minute, the agent (the service) should pick up the task and inspect.

This also means that the following options will be removed from the agent:

--no-filesystem
--no-registry
--no-system
--no-msi
--no-winupdate
--ignore
--path

The "ignore" and "path" can still be controlled via the registry:
https://vulndetect.org/topic/2388/

I don't know how many users use the Toolbox, we use it, because it is a nice way to extract data for new detections, which in turn is posted to some internal sub-categories for documentation purposes.

But the functionality to inspect is not used by anyone at SecTeer.
