Bucket Stream

Find interesting Amazon S3 Buckets by watching certificate transparency logs.

This tool simply listens to various certificate transparency logs (via certstream) and attempts to find public S3 buckets from permutations of the certificates domain name.

Demo

Be responsible. I mainly created this tool to highlight the risks associated with public S3 buckets and to put a different spin on the usual dictionary based attacks. Some quick tips if you use S3 buckets:

  1. Randomise your bucket names! There is no need to use company-backup.s3.amazonaws.com.
  2. Set appropriate permissions and audit regularly. If possible create two buckets - one for your public assets and another for private data.
  3. Be mindful about your data. What are suppliers, contractors and third parties doing with it? Where and how is it stored? These basic questions should be addressed in every info sec policy.

Thanks to my good friend David (@riskobscurity) for the idea.

Installation

Python 3.4+ and pip3 are required. Then just:

  1. git clone https://github.com/eth0izzle/bucket-stream.git
  2. (optional) Create a virtualenv with pip3 install virtualenv && virtualenv .virtualenv && source .virtualenv/bin/activate
  3. pip3 install -r requirements.txt
  4. python3 bucket-stream.py

Usage

Simply run python3 bucket-stream.py.

If you provide AWS access and secret keys in config.yaml Bucket Stream will attempt to identity the buckets owner.

usage: python3 bucket-stream.py

optional arguments:
  -h, --help           show this help message and exit
  --only-interesting   Only log 'interesting' buckets whose contents match
                       anything within keywords.txt (default: False)
  --skip-lets-encrypt  Skip certs (and thus listed domains) issued by Let's
                       Encrypt CA (default: False)
  -t , --threads       Number of threads to spawn. More threads = more power.
                       (default: 20)

F.A.Qs

  • Nothing appears to be happening

    Patience! Sometimes certificate transparency logs can be quiet for a few minutes.

  • I found something highly confidential

    Report it - please! You can usually figure out the owner from the bucket name or by doing some quick reconnaissance. Failing that contact Amazon's support teams.
