Open Source CAI Framework Handles Pen Testing Tasks up to 3,600× Faster Than Humans
CAI is a new open source AI framework that automates penetration testing tasks like scanning and exploitation up to 3,600× faster than humans.
No special configuration required, use the examples in the sample directory to run.
The default configuration has the following limitations:
Problem 1: Restarting the service will invalidate previous login information.
This is because fastoauth generates a random secret_key each time it starts, and tokens generated with the old secret_key will become invalid.
Problem 2: Tokens cannot be shared between multiple OAuth processes.
Since different processes generate different random secret_keys, tokens cannot be parsed by different processes.
Problem 3: Issued tokens cannot be revoked.
Since tokens are not stored by default and their validity is verified by decryption each time, issued tokens cannot be revoked within their validity period.
It is generally recommended to set a secret_key or use Redis for better availability.
This can solve problems 1 and 2 in the default configuration.
Note: After configuring Redis, the secret_key setting is invalid. Please refer to the Redis section for details.
Generating the secret_key
openssl rand -hex 32
If you don't have the openssl command, you need to install it separately.
# Installation on Windows, refer to https://zhuanlan.zhihu.com/p/108833705 for choco installation
choco install openssl -y
It is generally recommended to configure Redis for the highest security.
After configuring Redis, all problems in the default configuration can be solved.
At the same time, after configuring Redis, only shorter tokens need to be used during HTTP transmission, and richer content can be stored in Redis.
In the project directory ./sample/oauth_server.py
