What is BlackLeaf?


BlackLeaf is a software intended for pentesting and/or monitoring, not for any illegal purpose. BlackLeaf comprises of several components. The user-mode dll component is the only one that has to be present on the target's machine. To achieve this goal, the dll should be installed by any mean, including:

  • Manual modification of the registry and hard disk ( requires physical access)
  • Remote installation by using a specially developed program that silently drops and runs all the required components (this program is included)
We can see in the picture above that, once the BlackLeaf client ( a single dll ) has been installed on the target's machine , it sends -in real-time - every document opened in Microsoft Word to a remote server.

BlackLeaf supports HTTPS for sending the documents,it's highly recomendable to use this option. A valid Certificate is not needed at all.
