# firmwalker

A simple bash  script for searching the extracted or mounted firmware file system.

It will search through the extracted or mounted firmware file system for things of interest such as:

* etc/shadow and etc/passwd

* list out the etc/ssl directory

* search for SSL related files such as .pem, .crt, etc.

* search for configuration files

* look for script files

* search for other .bin files

* look for keywords such as admin, password, remote, etc.

* search for common web servers used on IoT devices

* search for common binaries such as ssh, tftp, dropbear, etc.

* search for URLs, email addresses and IP addresses

* Experimental support for making calls to the Shodan API using the Shodan CLI

## Usage

* If you wish to use the static code analysis portion of the script, please install eslint: `npm i -g eslint`

* `./firmwalker {path to root file system} {path for firmwalker.txt}`

* Example: `./firmwalker linksys/fmk/rootfs ../firmwalker.txt`

* A file `firmwalker.txt` will be created in the same directory as the script file unless you specify a different filename as the second argument

* Do not put the firmwalker.sh file inside the directory to be searched, this will cause the script to search itself and the file it is creating

* `chmod 0700 firmwalker.sh`

## How to extend

* Have a look under 'data' where the checks live or add eslint rules - http://eslint.org/docs/rules/ to eslintrc.json

## Example Files - https://1drv.ms/f/s!AucQMYXJNefdvGZyeYt16H72VCLv

* squashfs-root.zip - contains files from random extracted router firmware. Firmwalker can be run against this file system.

* rt-ac66u.txt - firmwalker output file

* xc.txt - firmwalker output file from Ubiquiti device
