Steganography brute-force utility to uncover hidden data inside files.

Changelog v2.0.9

Made default wordlist handling more user-friendly, sould address issue #14
– If no wordlist is specified Kali Linuxes rockyou.txt will be used
– If the rockyou is not found, but the gzipped version is, a message will be printed
– If neither was found the program will quit with a message stating to use a custom wordlist

Installation

To install the program, follow these steps:

$ sudo apt-get install steghide -y

$ sudo curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Paradoxis/StegCracker/master/stegcracker > /bin/stegcracker

$ sudo chmod +x /bin/stegcracker

Usage

Using stegcracker is simple, pass a file to it as it’s the first parameter and optionally pass the path to a wordlist of passwords to try as it’s the second parameter. If this is not set it will default to the rockyou.txt password file which ships with Kali Linux.
