ectg

eBPF Canarytoken trigger.

CLI tool which triggers DNS based Canarytokens when execve syscalls are invoked for programs at specified paths.

Requirements

• go 1.18/1.19
• Linux 4.9+
• clang-11/clang-14

Build & Run

First, generate a DNS Canarytoken at https://canarytokens.org/generate.

Afterwards:

$ make generate
$ go build
$ sudo ./ectg -hostname 6j4n7c2flo71qa0r9g0simq2r.canarytokens.com -paths /usr/bin/id,/usr/bin/whoami,/usr/bin/hostname

With ectg running, execute whoami in a separate shell session — the Canarytoken will trigger and an email will be sent to the address you entered when creating the token.
