Lightbearer

Description

Lightbearer is a command-line tool that I developed which identifies passwords and API tokens stored within Linux file systems.

The screenshot above shows a scan of a default Kali Linux VM with 0 results initially. I then echo some fake passwords into a couple of different files, and re-scan the system, and both passwords are then captured.

Lightbearer serves as a client for the DeepPass project (which is not developed by me) and only requires python3 to be present on the client system, with no additional dependencies.
