# HellPot
[![GoDoc](https://godoc.org/github.com/yunginnanet/HellPot?status.svg)](https://godoc.org/github.com/yunginnanet/HellPot) [![Go Report Card](https://goreportcard.com/badge/github.com/yunginnanet/HellPot)](https://goreportcard.com/report/github.com/yunginnanet/HellPot) [![IRC](https://img.shields.io/badge/ircd.chat-%23tcpdirect-blue.svg)](ircs://ircd.chat:6697/#tcpdirect) [![Mentioned in Awesome Honeypots](https://awesome.re/mentioned-badge.svg)](https://github.com/paralax/awesome-honeypots)
## Summary
HellPot is an endless honeypot based on [Heffalump](https://github.com/carlmjohnson/heffalump) that sends unruly HTTP bots to hell.
Notably it implements a [toml configuration file](https://github.com/spf13/viper), has [JSON logging](https://github.com/rs/zerolog), and comes with significant performance gains.

## Grave Consequences
Clients (hopefully bots) that disregard `robots.txt` and connect to your instance of HellPot will **suffer eternal consequences**.
HellPot will send an infinite stream of data that is *just close enough* to being a real website that they might just stick around until their soul is ripped apart and they cease to exist.
Under the hood of this eternal suffering is a markov engine that chucks bits and pieces of [The Birth of Tragedy (Hellenism and Pessimism)](https://www.gutenberg.org/files/51356/51356-h/51356-h.htm) by Friedrich Nietzsche at the client using [fasthttp](https://github.com/valyala/fasthttp).
## Compilation
HellPot should probably be built with Go version 1.17 or higher.
HellPot uses [go modules](https://go.dev/blog/using-go-modules). This should make it dead simple to build with a stock Go installation.
1 ) `git clone https://github.com/yunginnanet/HellPot`
2 ) `cd HellPot`
4 ) `go build cmd/HellPot/HellPot.go`
5 ) *Consider the potential grave consequences of your actions.*
## Usage
### YOLO Method:
In the event of a missing configuration file, HellPot will attempt to place it's default config in **$HOME/.config/HellPot/config.toml**. This allows irresponsible souls to begin raining hellfire with ease, ***immediately***:
1 ) Download a [compiled release](https://github.com/yunginnanet/HellPot/releases/latest)
2 ) Run binary and immedidately begin sending clients directly to hell.
---
### Reasonable Method:
1 ) Configure webserver as reverse proxy (see below)
2 ) `./HellPot --genconfig `
3 ) Edit your newly generated `config.toml` as desired.
4 ) Ponder your ~~existence~~ server's ability to handle your chosen performance values.
5 ) ./HellPot -c config.toml

## Example Config (toml)
```toml
[deception]
# Used as "Server" HTTP header. Note that reverse proxies may hide this.
server_name = "nginx"
[http]
# TCP Listener (default)
bind_addr = "127.0.0.1"
bind_port = "8080"
# Unix Socket Listener (will override default)
unix_socket_path = "/var/run/hellpot"
unix_socket_permissions = "0666"
use_unix_socket = false
[http.router]
# Toggling this to true will cause all GET requests to match. Forces makerobots = false.
catchall = false
# Toggling this to false will prevent creation of robots.txt handler.
makerobots = true
# Handlers will be created for these paths, as well as robots.txt entries. Only valid if catchall = false.
paths = ["wp-login.php", "wp-login"]
[logger]
# verbose (-v)
debug = true
# extra verbose (-vv)
trace = false
directory = "/home/kayos/.config/HellPot/logs/"
nocolor = false
use_date_filename = true
[performance]
# max_workers is only valid if restrict_concurrency is true
max_workers = 256
restrict_concurrency = false
```
## Example Web Server Config (nginx)
```
location '/robots.txt' {
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8080$request_uri;
}
location '/wp-login.php' {
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8080$request_uri;
}
```
