Hey! Good question. Creating Openbullet configs can seem a bit daunting at first, but once you get the hang of the basic blocks, it's pretty straightforward.
At its core, an Openbullet config is a set of instructions that tells Openbullet how to interact with a website. Think of it as automating the steps you'd take manually in a browser.
Here's a breakdown of the main steps and blocks involved:
- Understand the Target Website's Flow: Before you even open Openbullet, you need to understand how the website you're targeting works. For example, if you're making a login config:
- What URL does the login form submit to?
- What HTTP method does it use (GET or POST)?
- What are the names of the input fields for username/email and password?
- Are there any hidden tokens (like CSRF tokens) that need to be sent?
- What does a successful login response look like? What about a failed one?
You can figure this out using your browser's developer tools (Network tab) or tools like Fiddler, Burp Suite, or Wireshark to intercept the traffic.
- The REQUEST Block: This is where you tell Openbullet to send an HTTP request to the website.
- Method: GET or POST (usually POST for logins).
- URL: The endpoint you're sending the request to.
- Headers: Important headers like
User-Agent, Content-Type, Accept, etc. You'll often need to replicate what a real browser sends.
- Content: For POST requests, this is where you put your form data (e.g.,
user={user}&pass={pass}&csrf_token={token}). The {user} and {pass} are placeholders that Openbullet will replace with values from your wordlist.
- The PARSE Blocks (or L-R Blocks): After you send a request, you often need to extract information from the website's response. This is crucial for things like:
- Getting CSRF tokens from a login page before submitting the form.
- Extracting account details (e.g., username, email, subscription status) after a successful login.
Common parsing methods include:
- L-R (Left-Right): Extracts text between a "left string" and a "right string". This is very common.
- CSS: Uses CSS selectors to find elements.
- XPath: Uses XPath expressions to navigate the HTML/XML tree.
- RegEx: Uses regular expressions for more complex pattern matching.
- JSON: For APIs that return JSON data.
You'll define a variable name for the extracted data (e.g., TOKEN) and then you can use that variable in subsequent requests (e.g., csrf_token={TOKEN}).
- The KEYCHECK Blocks: These blocks determine if your request was successful, failed, or if it hit a ban/retry condition.
- SUCCESS: What indicates a successful hit? (e.g., "Welcome, {user}!", "Dashboard", a specific redirect URL, or a unique string only present after login).
- FAILURE: What indicates a failed login? (e.g., "Incorrect password", "Invalid credentials").
- BAN: What indicates you've been banned or rate-limited? (e.g., "Too many requests", "IP blocked", a specific HTTP status code like 403 or 429).
- RETRY: Sometimes you might want to retry if the site is temporarily unavailable or returns a non-critical error (e.g., 500 server error).
You'll typically use L-R or RegEx for these checks against the response body or headers.
- Other Useful Blocks:
- FUNCTION: To perform various operations like encoding/decoding, hashing, random string generation, etc.
- UTILITY: For things like Captcha solving, delays, or logging.
General Workflow for a Login Config:
1.
Initial GET Request: Send a GET request to the login page to get any necessary cookies or CSRF tokens.
2.
Parse CSRF Token: Use a
PARSE block to extract the CSRF token (if any) from the response of the first GET request.
3.
Login POST Request: Send a POST request to the login endpoint, including the username (
{user}), password (
{pass}), and the extracted CSRF token (
{token}).
4.
Keychecks: Add
KEYCHECK blocks to determine if the login was successful, failed, or resulted in a ban.
It takes practice, but once you start dissecting a few websites and building simple configs, you'll get the hang of it quickly. There are also many tutorials on YouTube and other forums that walk through specific examples.
