DO YOU COPY PASTE YOUR STRONG

PASSWORDS? CLIPBOARDME IS HERE


TO HACK YOU

INTRODUCTION
Now, it’s easy to copy all the victim browsing data automatically and other personal information using one link.
Imagine you are working on your system and doing some online shopping or logging into some website or
logging into some server. Your password is little bit strong, so you plan to copy your password and paste it to
login into shopping portal or server. If you have done this in your past, do not repeat this in Future. Everything
you copy on your system, is copied to a temporary place called Clipboard and this copied content to Clipboard
can be stolen by a hacker.

Today we will walk you through a tool called Clipboardme, which is used to copy clipboard data of the Victim.
It can be sometimes your credit card, password or other confidential Information. Using this tool we can also
take control of victim’s system, if victims enter this shortcut command “windows + x”, “p”, “ctrl + v” it even
injects malicious code. This tool is a built-in python language.

 Now, if the victim copies anything in his machine (like credit card, password or other confidential
Information) the data will be sent directly send to hackers’ machine.
 This data is sent to hacker machine by refreshing the link opened by victim on his/her computer. This
process can be auto refreshed by changing webpage code send by a link to victim.
 The file will be saved as clipboard.txt and it also copies the IP address with the browser name. In our case
file is saved at /home/iicybersecurity/clipboardme/
