Seeker

Introduction

Seeker utilizes HTML5, Javascript, JQuery and PHP to grab Device Information and GeoLocation with High Accuracy.

Seeker Hosts a fake website on Apache Server and uses Ngrok to generate an SSL link which asks for Location Permission and if the user allows it, we can get :

  • Longitude
  • Latitude
  • Accuracy
  • Altitude – Not always available
  • Direction – Only available if a user is moving
  • Speed – Only available if a user is moving

Along with Location Information, we can also get Device Information without any permissions :

  • Operating System
  • Platform
  • Number of CPU Cores
  • Amount of RAM – Approximate Results
  • Screen Resolution
  • GPU information
  • Browser Name and Version
  • Public IP Address

This tool is purely a Proof of Concept and is for Educational Purposes Only, Seeker shows what data a malicious website can gather about you and your devices and why you should not click on random links and allow critical permissions such as Location, etc.

  • Other tools and services offer IP Geolocation which is not very accurate and does not give the location of a user.
  • Generally, if a user accepts location permission, Accuracy of the information received is accurate to approximately 30 meters.

Note: On iPhone due to some reason location accuracy is approximately 65 meters.
