silenteye

SilentEye is a cross-platform application design for an easy use of steganography, in this case hiding messages into pictures or sounds. It provides a pretty nice interface and an easy integration of new steganography algorithm and cryptography process by using a plug-ins system. SilentEye is free to use (under GNU GPL v3).

Main Features

Hide information into images and sounds (LSB) : JPEG, BMP, WAVE
Encrypte data : AES128, AES256
Capacity to hide text or file
zlib compression of message
Drag & Drop

How can i run SilentEye from command line? (batch mode)

Requirements

Batch mode is only available from version 0.4.3 of SilentEye. (source here on branch 0.4)

You can change encode and decode options by editing the following files :

silenteye.conf
seformatbmp.conf
seformatjpeg.conf
seformatwav.conf Configuration files can be found into user's home or SilentEye directory

Examples

Basics:

./silenteye --batch encode ./myfile.png --message "my secret message"
./silenteye --batch encode ./myfile.png --message_file ./message.txt

output format and directory depends on silenteye.conf

Encryption:

./silenteye --batch encode ./myfile.png --message "my secret message" --password "my password"

How can i compile source code? on Ubuntu/Unix

Requirments

apt-get install -y g++ libfontconfig1-dev libfreetype6-dev libx11-dev libxcursor-dev libxext-dev libxfixes-dev libxft-dev libxi-dev libxrandr-dev libxrender-dev libssl-dev

Qt

You have to install Qt from source with the following commands:

root$ wget http://download.qt.io/official_releases/qt/4.8/4.8.7/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.7.tar.gz
root$ tar -zxvf qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.7.tar.gz
root$ cd qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.7
root$ ./configure -release -nomake examples -nomake demos -no-qt3support -no-scripttools -no-opengl -no-webkit -no-phonon -no-sql-sqlite -gtkstyle -opensource -prefix /usr/local/Qt-4.8.7-release
root$ make
root$ make install

or for static compilation :

root$ ./configure -static -nomake examples -nomake demos -no-qt3support -no-scripttools -no-opengl -no-webkit -no-phonon -no-sql-sqlite -gtkstyle -opensource -prefix /usr/local/Qt-4.8.7-release

QCA2

QCA is also required for encryption support (modules) :

root$ wget http://delta.affinix.com/download/qca/2.0/qca-2.0.3.tar.bz2
root$ bunzip2 qca-2.0.3.tar.bz2 && tar -xvf qca-2.0.3.tar
root$ cd qca-2.0.3
root$ patch src/botantools/botan/botan/secmem.h fix_build_gcc4.7.diff
root$ ./configure --qtdir=/usr/local/Qt-4.8.7-release/
root$ make
root$ make install

Download patch : fix_build_gcc4.7.diff

or for static compilation :

./configure --qtdir=/usr/local/Qt-4.8.7-static/ --static

QCA-OSSL

next is QCA plugin for OpenSSL support :

root$ wget http://delta.affinix.com/download/qca/2.0/plugins/qca-ossl-2.0.0-beta3.tar.bz2
root$ bunzip2 qca-ossl-2.0.0-beta3.tar.bz2 && tar -xvf qca-ossl-2.0.0-beta3.tar
root$ cd qca-ossl-2.0.0-beta3
root$ patch qca-ossl.cpp < detect_ssl2_available.diff
root$ patch qca-ossl.cpp < detect_md2_available.diff
root$ ./configure --qtdir=/usr/local/Qt-4.8.7-release/
root$ make
root$ make install

Download patch : detect_ssl2_available.diff and detect_md2_available.diff

or for static compilation :

./configure --qtdir=/usr/local/Qt-4.8.7-static/ --static

CMake

CMake (version > 2.8.10 required) :

root$ apt-get install cmake

Get source code

Then download and move into source folder :

user$ git clone --branch 0.4 https://github.com/DarkReZuS/silenteye.git
user$ cd silenteye

Let's compile

Now you can generate MakeFile like this :

user$ export PATH=/usr/local/Qt-4.8.7-release/bin:$PATH
user$ ENABLE_MODULE=1 cmake .

or for static compilation :

user$ export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/Qt-4.8.7-static/bin
user$ ENABLE_MODULE=1 ENABLE_STATIC=1 cmake .

Just run make command to build the project

make

Run

You can now run silenteye with the following command :

./silenteye

Install on system

Installation information can be found in "Compilation options" section (use of ENABLE_PACK=1).

Installation Example

$root> ENABLE_PACK=1 ENABLE_MODULE=1 LOGPATH_USERHOME=1 CONFPATH_USERHOME=1 ENABLE_GNOMEMENU=1 cmake .
$root> make
$root> make install
or
$root> make install DESTDIR=$PKG

How can i compile source code? on Windows

Requirments

Download and install the following tools :

Qt 4.8 SDK (MinGW) : http://download.qt.io/official_releases/qt/4.8/4.8.7/qt-opensource-windows-x86-mingw482-4.8.7.exe
CMake 2.8.12 : http://cmake.org/files/v2.8/cmake-2.8.12.2-win32-x86.exe
OpenSSL 1.0.2d for windows : https://www.openssl.org/community/binaries.html
Download QCA 2.0.1 for MinGW : http://delta.affinix.com/download/qca/2.0/qca-2.0.1-mingw.zip
- copy qca2.dll and qcad2.dll into C:\Qt\2010.04\qt\bin
- copy libqca2.a and libqcad2.a into C:\Qt\2010.04\qt\lib
- copy QtCrypto directory into C:\Qt\2010.04\qt\include
Download QCA-OSSL 2.0.0 for MinGW : http://delta.affinix.com/download/qca/2.0/plugins/qca-ossl-2.0.0-beta3.tar.bz2
- copy qca-ossl2.dll into C:\Qt\2010.04\qt\plugins\crypto

Making QCA works (compilation and packaging) with mingw was really painfull, that's why i provide you an archive you just have to uncompress into your qt installation directory : qca2-qtfolder.zip

Get source code

Then download :

user$ git clone --branch 0.4 https://github.com/DarkReZuS/silenteye.git

Import project into Qt Creator 2

Download QtCreator : http://download.qt.io/official_releases/qtcreator/3.5/3.5.0/qt-creator-opensource-windows-x86-3.5.0.exe

Configure Kit and cmake http://doc.qt.io/qtcreator/creator-targets.html
Open file or project => select silenteye/CMakeLists.txt
Choose mingw generator and set parameter to "."
Configure project compilation
add environnement variable: ENABLE_MODULE set to 1
add step (before mingw32-make). => cmake.exe with parameter "."
Close Qt Creator and reopen it using your last session (force files scan)

Run

Just use the run function of Qt Creator
