Porch Pirate: The most comprehensive Postman recon / OSINT client and framework

Porch Pirate

Porch Pirate started as a tool to quickly uncover Postman secrets, and has slowly begun to evolve into a multi-purpose reconnaissance / OSINT framework for Postman. While existing tools are great proof of concepts, they only attempt to identify very specific keywords as “secrets”, and in very limited locations, with no consideration to recon beyond secrets. We realized we required capabilities that were “secret-agnostic”, and had enough flexibility to capture false-positives that still provided offensive value.

Porch Pirate enumerates and presents sensitive results (global secrets, unique headers, endpoints, query parameters, authorization, etc), from publicly accessible Postman entities, such as:

• Workspaces
• Collections
• Requests
• Users
• Teams

Install

python3 -m pip install porch-pirate

Use

The Porch Pirate client can be used to conduct reviews on public Postman entities quickly and simply. There are intended workflows and particular keywords to be used that can typically maximize results. These methodologies can be located on our blog: Plundering Postman with Porch Pirate.

Porch Pirate supports the following arguments to be performed on collections, workspaces, or users.

• --globals
• --collections
• --requests
• --urls
• --dump
• --raw
• --curl

Simple Search

Get Workspace Globals

By default, Porch Pirate will display globals from all active and inactive environments if they are defined in the workspace. Provide a -w argument with the workspace ID (found by performing a simple search, or automatic search dump) to extract the workspace’s globals, along with other information.

Dump Workspace

When an interesting result has been found with a simple search, we can provide the workspace ID to the -w argument with the --dump command to begin extracting information from the workspace and its collections.

Automatic Search and Globals Extraction

Porch Pirate can be supplied a simple search term, following the --globals argument. Porch Pirate will dump all relevant workspaces tied to the results discovered in the simple search, but only if there are globals defined. This is particularly useful for quickly identifying potentially interesting workspaces to dig into further.

Automatic Search Dump

Porch Pirate can be supplied a simple search term, following the --dump argument. Porch Pirate will dump all relevant workspaces and collections tied to the results discovered in the simple search. This is particularly useful for quickly sifting through potentially interesting results.

Extract URLs from Workspace

A particularly useful way to use Porch Pirate is to extract all URLs from a workspace and export them to another tool for fuzzing.

Automatic URL Extraction

Porch Pirate will recursively extract all URLs from workspaces and their collections related to a simple search term.

Show Collections in a Workspace

Show Workspace Requests

Show raw JSON

Show Entity Information

porch-pirate -c COLLECTION_ID

porch-pirate -r REQUEST_ID

Convert Request to Curl

Porch Pirate can build curl requests when provided with a request ID for easier testing.
