Payload Library for the USB Rubber Ducky by Hak5

This repository contains payloads, extensions and languages for the Hak5 USB Rubber Ducky. Community developed payloads are listed and developers are encouraged to create pull requests to make changes to or submit new payloads.

Payloads here are written in official DuckyScript™ specifically for the USB Rubber Ducky. Payloads here must be compiled using Hak5 PayloadStudio. Hak5 does NOT guarantee payload functionality. See Legal and Disclaimers

A "flash drive" that types keystroke injection payloads into unsuspecting devices at incredible speeds.

USB Rubber Ducky

New USB Rubber Ducky (A+C, DuckyScript 3.0, 2022)

Computers trust humans. Humans use keyboards. Hence the universal spec — HID, or Human Interface Device.

A keyboard presents itself as a HID, and in turn it's inherently trusted as human by the computer.

The USB Rubber Ducky — which looks like an innocent flash drive to humans — takes advantage of this trust to deliver powerful payloads, injecting keystrokes at superhuman speeds.

Easily automate any task you can perform with a keyboard with an easy to learn language designed specifically for the USB Rubber Ducky.

About DuckyScript™

Legacy DuckyScript (1.0)

Hak5 introduced Keystroke Injection in 2010 with the USB Rubber Ducky™. This technique, developed by Hak5 founder Darren Kitchen, was his weapon of choice for automating mundane tasks at his IT job — fixing printers, network shares and the like. Today the USB Rubber Ducky is a hacker culture icon, synonymous with the keystroke injection technique it pioneered. It’s found its way into the hearts and toolkits of Cybersecurity and IT pros the world over — including many movies and TV shows! Core to its success is its simple language, DuckyScript™. Originally just three commands, it could be learned by anyone—regardless of experience—in minutes.

With the new USB Rubber Ducky in 2022, DuckyScript 3.0 has been introduced.

DuckyScript 3.0

DuckyScript 3.0 is a feature rich, structured programming language. It includes all of the previously available commands and features of the original DuckyScript.

(DuckyScript 3.0 is backwards compatible with DuckyScript 1.0; this means all your favorite DuckyScript 1.0 paylaods are valid DuckyScript 3.0)

Additionally, DuckyScript 3.0 introduces control flow constructs, loops, functions, extensions. Plus, DuckyScript 3.0 includes many features specific to keystroke injection attack/automation, such as HID & Storage attack modes, OS Detection, Keystroke Reflection (Video + Whitepaper), jitter and randomization to name a few.

While many of the Hak5 Tools run various versions of DuckyScript; unlike the Bash Bunny, Key Croc and even the officially licenced DuckyScript compatible devices from O.MG - which use INTERPRETED versions of DuckyScript - the USB Rubber Ducky uses COMPILED inject.bin payloads.

Interpreted DuckyScript means the payload runs straight from source code (the code you write e.g. DELAY 1000).

Compiled DuckyScript means that there is both source code and an inject.bin generated from the source code. (DuckyScript 1.0 was "encoded" rather than "compiled" - references to either mean the same)

The files in this repository are the source code in the form of payload.txt files.

Take your DuckyScript™ payloads to the next level with this full-featured, web-based (entirely client side) development environment.

Payload studio features all of the conveniences of a modern IDE, right from your browser. From syntax highlighting and auto-completion to live error-checking and repo synchronization - building payloads for Hak5 hotplug tools has never been easier!

Supports your favorite Hak5 gear - USB Rubber Ducky, Bash Bunny, Key Croc, Shark Jack, Packet Squirrel & LAN Turtle!

DuckyScript Ecosystem

Support for different keyboard layouts can be found, modified or contributed to in the languages/ directory of this repository.

Compiling payloads for the correct language / keyboard layout has never been easier:

Open PayloadStudio > Settings > Compiler Settings

PayloadStudio includes all the languages provided in this repo built-in for your convenience.

PayloadStudio Pro has a dedicated language editor specifically for editing and building language files!

The default language is US (languages/us.json)

It should be clear by now that so much is possible with DuckyScript 3.0. The combination of keystroke injection with various attack modes, logic and data processing, along with the built-in features like randomization and internal variables — the possibilities for advanced payload functions seems endless.



Payload Studio Extensions Preview GIF

As the payload library continues to grow, so too will the DuckyScript 3.0 language. To that end, the extensions feature of the language and editor facilitate the continued growth of the language. Extensions are blocks of reusable code which may be implemented in any payload. Think of them as snippets, or building blocks, upon which your next payload may benefit. While Hak5 developers cannot envision all possible use cases for the USB Rubber Ducky, the DuckyScript language has been architected in such a way so that the community as a whole may gain new features and abilities with each contributed extension.

Once you have developed your payload, you are encouraged to contribute to this repository by submitting a Pull Request. Reviewed and Approved pull requests will add your payload to this repository, where they may be publically available.

Please adhere to the following best practices and style guides when submitting a payload.

Purely Destructive payloads will not be accepted. No, it's not "just a prank".

Subject to change. Please ensure any submissions meet the latest version of these standards before submitting a Pull Request.

Naming Conventions

Please give your payload a unique, descriptive and appropriate name. Do not use spaces in payload, directory or file names. Each payload should be submit into its own directory, with - or _ used in place of spaces, to one of the categories such as exfiltration, phishing, remote_access or recon. Do not create your own category.

Payload Configuration

In many cases, payloads will require some level of configuration by the end payload user. Be sure to take the following into careful consideration to ensure your payload is easily tested, used and maintained.

  • Abstract configuration(s) for ease of use. Use DEFINE where possible.
  • Remember to use PLACEHOLDERS for configurable portions of your payload - do not share your personal URLs, API keys, Passphrases, etc...
  • Make note of both required and optional configuration(s) in your payload using comments at the top of your payload or "inline" where applicable
Example: 
	BEGINNING OF PAYLOAD 
	... Payload Documentation... 

	REM Configuration
	REM REQUIRED - Provide URL used for Example
	DEFINE MY_TARGET_URL example.com
	REM OPTIONAL - How long until payload starts; default 5s
	DEFINE BOOT_DELAY 5000
	REM End Configuration
	...
	DELAY 5000
	...
	STRING MY_TARGET_URL
	...

Payload Documentation

Payloads should begin with REM comments specifying the title of the payload, the author, the target, and a brief description.

Example:
	BEGINNING OF PAYLOAD

	REM Title: Example Payload
	REM Author: Korben Dallas
	REM Description: Opens hidden powershell and
	REM Target: Windows 10
	REM Props: Hak5, Darren Kitchen, Korben
	REM Version: 1.0
	REM Category: General

Staged Payloads

While staging code used in payloads is often useful and appropriate, using this repository as the means of deploying those stages is not. This repository is not a CDN for deployment on target systems. URLs used for retrieving staged code should refer exclusively to example.com using DEFINE in any payload submissions (see above). Staged code should be copied to and hosted on an appropriate server for doing so - Github and this repository are simply resources for sharing code among developers and users.
