AIL framework - Framework for Analysis of Information Leaks
AIL is a modular framework to analyse potential information leaks from unstructured data sources like pastes from Pastebin or similar services. AIL framework is flexible and can be extended to support other functionalities to mine sensitive information.

Type these command lines for a fully automated installation and start AIL framework
git clone https://github.com/CIRCL/AIL-framework.git
cd AIL-framework
./installing_deps.sh
cd var/www/
./update_thirdparty.sh
cd ~/AIL-framework/
. ./AILENV/bin/activate
cd bin/
./LAUNCH.sh
As AIL is based on python, obviously an installation of python is a requirement:
sudo apt-get install python2.7
In addition pip, virtualenv and screen are needed:
sudo apt-get install python-pip
sudo pip install virtualenv
sudo apt-get install screen
sudo apt-get install unzip
You need to create a variable AILENV that will be the installation path:
export AILENV="/home/user/AIL-framework"
Usually the installation path is where the project is cloned.
Then create a Python virtual environment:
cd $AILENV
virtualenv AILENV
And install these few more packets:
sudo apt-get install g++
sudo apt-get install python-dev
sudo apt-get install python-tk
sudo apt-get install screen
sudo apt-get install libssl-dev
sudo apt-get install libfreetype6-dev
sudo apt-get install python-numpy
sudo apt-get install libadns1
sudo apt-get install libadns1-dev
sudo apt-get install libev-dev (redis-levelDB dependency)
sudo apt-get install libgmp-dev (redis-levelDB dependency)
Then these modules need to be install with pip inside the virtual environment: (Activating virtualenv)
. ./AILENV/bin/activate
You'll need to clone langid: [https://github.com/saffsd/langid.py] And install it:
python setup.py install
These are all the packages you can install with pip:
pip install redis
pip install logbook
pip install pubsublogger
pip install networkx
pip install crcmod
pip install mmh3
pip install dnspython
pip install pyzmq
pip install texttable
pip install -U textblob
python -m textblob.download_corpora
pip install python-magic
pip install numpy
pip install flask
pip install nltk
pip install whoosh
pip install matplotlib ----- (sudo ln -s freetype2/ft2build.h in /usr/include/)
pip install pybloomfiltermmap ----- (you may need to sudo apt-get install libssl-dev)
pip install ipaddress
pip install http://adns-python.googlecode.com/files/adns-python-1.2.1.tar.gz
pip install https://github.com/trolldbois/python-cymru-services/archive/master.zip
Assuming that you install everything under /opt/ with adequate permissions:
wget http://download.redis.io/releases/redis-2.8.12.tar.gz
tar -xvf redis-2.8.12.tar.gz -C /opt/
And follow the README after extraction.
When redis is properly installed you can edit your own config files for
the different required databases or just take the config from the project
located under /config/
git clone https://github.com/KDr2/redis-leveldb.git
Follow the redis-leveldb README.
Then create these directories
cd $AILENV
mkdir PASTES
mkdir Blooms
mkdir dumps
mkdir LEVEL_DB_DATA
cd LEVEL_DB_DATA/
mkdir 2014
mkdir 2013
If you installed all the requirements described above, you should be able to start AIL framework:
cd $AILENV
cd bin
./LAUNCH.sh
To start with the web interface, you need to fetch the required Javascript/CSS files:
cd $AILENV
cd var/www/
bash update_thirdparty.sh
and then you can start the web interface:
cd $AILENV
cd var/www/
Flask_server.py
Eventually you can browse the status of the AIL framework at the following URL:
``http://localhost:7000/``
Assuming you already downloaded the project and configured everything:
- Redis databases [http://redis.io/]
- Redis Level DB [https://github.com/KDr2/redis-leveldb]
This module will recover from a streams all the Tor .onion addresses, which look like this: "http://3g2upl4pq6kufc4m.onion/"
Basically we want to match all pastes in with .onion addresses inside.
For that you can already use the module ZMQ_PubSub_Categ and just
create your own category file in: /file/ here it will be /file/onion_categ.
You also need to link this file inside another file (list_categ_files).
Inside the file "onion_categ", you will add the word "onion" (don't forget the carriage return).
Once it's done, after the launch of AIL framework, every paste with the word onion inside will be forwarded on a specific channel (onion_categ).
Then what you want to do is to identify these pastes to extract the .onion addresses.
To do that, you'll need to create 2 scripts:
ZMQ_Sub_Onion_Q.py (Redis bufferizing)
ZMQ_Sub_Onion.py (The extraction)
Those two files are there as an example.
Here is a "chained tree" to show how all ZMQ Modules that are linked and how the information (mainly the paste) is flowing between them.
The onion module is interfaced at top down level of this tree (like the ZMQ_Sub_Urls module).
All modules that you want to create using the "tokenization method" and the "categories system" need to be created at this level.
If you want to create a general module (e.g. using all pastes), this module needs to be created at the same level than ZMQ_Sub_Duplicate.
- Redis on TCP port 6379 - DB 1 - Paste meta-data
-
DB 0 - Cache hostname/dns - Redis on TCP port 6380 - Redis Pub-Sub only
- Redis on TCP port 6381 - DB 0 - Queue and Paste content LRU cache
- LevelDB on TCP port - Lines duplicate
