About

Darkdump is a OSINT interface for carrying out deep web investgations written in python in which it allows users to enter a search query in which darkdump provides the ability to scrape .onion sites relating to that query to try to extract emails, metadata, keywords, images, social media etc. Darkdump retrieves sites via Ahmia.fi and scrapes those .onion addresses when connected via the tor network.

Installation

  1. git clone https://github.com/josh0xA/darkdump
  2. cd darkdump
  3. python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt
  4. python3 darkdump.py --help

Tor Configuration

To use Darkdump effectively, you need to configure Tor to allow your script to control it via the Tor control port. Here's how to set up your torrc file and verify that Tor is running:

Step 1: Install Tor

If Tor is not already installed on your system, you need to install it. Here's how you can install Tor on various operating systems:

Debian/Kali/Ubuntu: sudo apt install tor
MacOS: brew install tor

Step 2: Configure the Tor torrc File

Locate your torrc file. This file is usually found at /etc/tor/torrcon Linux and sometimes Mac.

Add the following lines to your torrc to enable the control port and set a control port password:

ControlPort 9051
HashedControlPassword [YourHashedPasswordHere]

Replace [YourHashedPasswordHere] with a hashed password which can be generated using the tor --hash-password command: tor --hash-password "my_password"

Step 3: Start Tor Service

Linux: sudo systemctl start tor.service
MacOS: brew services start tor

Example Queries:

python3 darkdump.py -q "hacking" -a 10 --scrape --proxy - search for 10 links and scrape each site
python3 darkdump.py -q "free movies" -a 25 - don't scrape, just return 25 links for that query (does not require tor)
python3 darkdump.py -q "marketplaces" -a 15 --scrape --proxy -i - search for 10 links and scrape each site as well as find and store images.
