This is a Go library and a collection of tools to interact with and analyze Tor HSDirs.

Bruteforcing tool

brute will bruteforce Identity Keys that will be the 6 HSDir for the given onion at the given time, considering the given consensus state (which should probably just be the most recent.

./bin/brute 2015-05-23-23-00-00-consensus facebookcorewwwi.onion 2015-05-29T12:00:00Z

You should really patch your Go standard library with the provided reduced-primalty patch, it will make the bruteforce 20 times as fast and complete checks are performed anyway by the tool itself (ProTip: have a separate Go tree for this security-shattering patch!)

Preprocessing

First, download consensus files from the following two addresses:

https://collector.torproject.org/archive/relay-descriptors/consensuses/
https://collector.torproject.org/recent/relay-descriptors/consensuses/

and make sure they are named like this (this is what you will get by just unpacking the tarballs):

$DIR/consensuses-2015-01/01/2015-01-01-00-00-00-consensus

Then there are two steps to preprocessing:

preprocess $DIR 2015-01-01-00 2015-05-28-10
grind pckcns.dat > stats.jsonl

This should leave you with the following three files: pckcns.dat, keys.db and stats.jsonl

Analysis tools

scrolls

scrolls will go through consensuses in a time frame and print the HSDir set every time it changed, with color-coded suspiciousness scores.

./bin/scrolls pckcns.dat keys.db stats.jsonl facebookcorewwwi.onion 2015-05-01-01 2015-05-28-10

• "Dist score" is a normalized score of how near the first HSDir is to the Descriptor ID, compared to the expected mean and average deviation on the ring.
• "Dist4 score" is the same, but for the distance of the 4th node.
• "Age" is how many hours before the node got the HSDir flag (or appeared). ∞ means since the beginning of the time frame.
• "Long" is how many hours after the node lost the HSDir flag (or disappeared). ∞ means until the end of the time frame.
• "Colo keys" is how many other Identity Keys have been observed on IPs that hosted this Identity Key.

curiosity

curiosity will generate statistics about correlations between IPs and multiple Identity Keys.
