Github Secrets

This tool analyzes a given Github repository and searches for dangling or force-pushed commits, containing potential secret or interesting information.

Requirements

Python3
requests

Installation

git clone https://github.com/neodyme-labs/github-secrets.git

Usage

To get a list of basic options and switches use:

python3 github_scanner.py -h

You can run this script either completely unauthenticated, with rather low Github API rate limits, or your export a generated API token.

The tokens need no privileges at all and are only used, for authentication against the API. A fine-grained personal access token is required for this project without any additional permissions.

To export the token use:

export GITHUB_ACCOUNT_TOKEN=<your_secret_api_token>

To run the script and scan a repository:

python3 github_scanner.py -r <username/repository>

To run the script and scan all of a specific users repositories:

python3 github_scanner.py -u <username>

Resources

To check your current API rate limits and usage with token:

curl -L -H "Accept: application/vnd.github+json" -H "Authorization: Bearer <your_secret_api_token>" -H "X-GitHub-Api-Version: 2022-11-28" https://api.github.com/rate_limit

Without token:

curl -L -H "Accept: application/vnd.github+json" -H "X-GitHub-Api-Version: 2022-11-28" https://api.github.com/rate_limit
