Contact

If you need help using Tor you can contact WikiLeaks for assistance in setting it up using our simple webchat available at: https://wikileaks.org/talk

If you can use Tor, but need to contact WikiLeaks for other reasons use our secured webchat available at http://wlchatc3pjwpli5r.onion

We recommend contacting us over Tor if you can.

Tor

Tor is an encrypted anonymising network that makes it harder to intercept internet communications, or see where communications are coming from or going to.

In order to use the WikiLeaks public submission system as detailed above you can download the Tor Browser Bundle, which is a Firefox-like browser available for Windows, Mac OS X and GNU/Linux and pre-configured to connect using the anonymising system Tor.

Tails

If you are at high risk and you have the capacity to do so, you can also access the submission system through a secure operating system called Tails. Tails is an operating system launched from a USB stick or a DVD that aim to leaves no traces when the computer is shut down after use and automatically routes your internet traffic through Tor. Tails will require you to have either a USB stick or a DVD at least 4GB big and a laptop or desktop computer.

Tips

Our submission system works hard to preserve your anonymity, but we recommend you also take some of your own precautions. Please review these basic guidelines.

1. Contact us if you have specific problems

If you have a very large submission, or a submission with a complex format, or are a high-risk source, please contact us. In our experience it is always possible to find a custom solution for even the most seemingly difficult situations.

2. What computer to use

If the computer you are uploading from could subsequently be audited in an investigation, consider using a computer that is not easily tied to you. Technical users can also use Tails to help ensure you do not leave any records of your submission on the computer.

3. Do not talk about your submission to others

If you have any issues talk to WikiLeaks. We are the global experts in source protection – it is a complex field. Even those who mean well often do not have the experience or expertise to advise properly. This includes other media organisations.

1. Do not talk about your submission to others

If you have any issues talk to WikiLeaks. We are the global experts in source protection – it is a complex field. Even those who mean well often do not have the experience or expertise to advise properly. This includes other media organisations.

2. Act normal

If you are a high-risk source, avoid saying anything or doing anything after submitting which might promote suspicion. In particular, you should try to stick to your normal routine and behaviour.

3. Remove traces of your submission

If you are a high-risk source and the computer you prepared your submission on, or uploaded it from, could subsequently be audited in an investigation, we recommend that you format and dispose of the computer hard drive and any other storage media you used.

In particular, hard drives retain data after formatting which may be visible to a digital forensics team and flash media (USB sticks, memory cards and SSD drives) retain data even after a secure erasure. If you used flash media to store sensitive data, it is important to destroy the media.

If you do this and are a high-risk source you should make sure there are no traces of the clean-up, since such traces themselves may draw suspicion.

4. If you face legal action

If a legal action is brought against you as a result of your submission, there are organisations that may help you. The Courage Foundation is an international organisation dedicated to the protection of journalistic sources. You can find more details at https://www.couragefound.org.

WikiLeaks publishes documents of political or historical importance that are censored or otherwise suppressed. We specialise in strategic global publishing and large archives.

The following is the address of our secure site where you can anonymously upload your documents to WikiLeaks editors. You can only access this submissions system through Tor. (See our Tor tab for more information.) We also advise you to read our tips for sources before submitting.

(U) Scope

(U) This document establishes the User Guide for Rain Maker v1.0.

(U) System Overview and Description

(S) Rain Maker v1.0 is a collection tool intended to be run from removable media. Version 1.0 specifically is designed for use with portable VLCMediaplayer Player (2.1.5). To trigger collection, the user must open up VLCMediaplayer player on the target machine from the removable media. The removable media can appear as either a fixed or removable drive but must be formatted NTFS. Upon opening VLCMediaplayer player, Rain Maker collects a standard survey of the machine (RoadRunner Survey) and a prioritized file collection. A survey will only be taken on any machine if the last survey of the machine is seven days old or older. The collected data is stored back to Alternate Data Streams off of the root of the volume. For example, if the removable media appears as volume E:\, the data is stored in E:\:$DataIdN. Configuration options allow the user to specify a prioritized list of directories from which to collect files (environment variables can be used), a list of extensions to collect, the percentage of drive space to be left free, and the drive to configure/tie the tool to. Upon configuring a piece of removable media, a public/private key pair is generated (the private key in generated in Implant\Deploy as well as in PostProcessor). The private key must/must be kept in order to decrypt the returned data. A user may also specify a public key if a specific key pair is desired. Also, upon configuring a drive, a "stub" is generated that ties the tool to the drive. The stub, once loaded, decrypts Rain Maker and executes it. This means that if the drive is reformatted or if the portable player is moved to another drive, the actual collection tool will not be decrypted and as a result Rain Maker will not run.
(U) Assumptions and Constraints
(S) We assume that the target places files of interest into the directories we are collecting from. We also assume that the files in the collection directories have the appropriate extensions. It is required that the VLCMediaplayer player be run from the configured removable media. It must run long enough to complete collection. The removable media must be NTFS. VLCMediaplayer player should be exited before unplugging the removable media (a VLCMediaplayer issue).

(U) Applicable Documents

(S) The following documents pertain to this tool. In the event of a conflict between the documents referenced below, the contents of this document will be considered binding.

  • Rain Maker v1.0 User Guide.doc (S//NF)
  • Rain Maker v1.0 TDR Slides.ppt (S//NF)
  • User Guide.txt (U)


(U) System Description

(U) System Concepts and Capabilities

  • (S) Rain Maker v1.0 does not maintain a presence on the target machine
  • (S) Rain Maker v1.0 relies of VLCMediaplayer player for execution
  • (S) Rain Maker v1.0 follows the NODNetwork Operations Division Persistence Specification
  • (S) The Rain Maker stub is a DLLDynamic Link Library hijack of psapi.dll. The external manifest of VLCMediaplayer player is modified to force a Side-by-Side loading of psapi.dll (forcing a DLLDynamic Link Library hijack where there wasn't one). The stub DLLDynamic Link Library then uses the volume serial number of the drive it is running from to create an AESAdvanced Encryption Standard key. The key is then used to decrypt Rain Maker v1.0. Once decrypted, Rain Maker v1.0 is memory loaded.
  • (S) Upon startup, Rain Maker Stub sets a global mutex allowing only one instance to run at one time.
  • (S) Rain Maker will conduct a survey of the machine it is running on if a survey has not been conducted or if the last survey is 7 days old or older.
  • (S) A survey hash list is kept to keep track of last survey timestamps for machines that have been surveyed.
  • (S) Rain Maker conducts a prioritized file collection (configurable).
  • (S) Rain Maker collects files by matching patterns (configurable).
  • (S) There is a hard-coded maximum file size of a 100MBs for file collection. This means no files over 100MBs will be collected.
  • (S) A file collection hash file is kept. A file is collected if the file name, file size or file modified time differs from all previously collected files.
  • (S) Rain Maker v1.0 stores collection in Alternate Data Streams off of the root of the volume it is executing from.

(U) Prerequisites

  • (S) The target system must be running Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, or 8.1.
  • (S) The user of the target computer must execute VLCMediaplayer player from the configured drive.

(U) Operation

(U) Installation and Setup

(S) Configuration – Rain Maker Configurator

    1. Folder Structure
      1. Before trying to configure Rain Maker, first confirm that the Implant folder contains the four required files: RainMaker.dll, RainMakerStub.dll, RainMakerConfigurator.exe, vlc.exe.manifest. You will need to open a command prompt and navigate to this directory to configure Rain Maker using the RainMakerConfigurator.exe.
    2. Deploy Directory
      1. Upon executing the configurator a Deploy folder is generated (as a sub-folder of Implant). Depending upon the options you choose during configuration, up to 5 files will be placed in the Deploy folder. These 5 files include RainMaker_Configured.dll (the configured version generated for this deployment), RainMaker_Configured.dll.enc (the encrypted container containing RainMaker_Configured.dll), RainMakerStub_Configured.dll (the configured stub for this deployment), RainMaker_PubKey.pem and RainMaker_PrivKey.pem (the public and private key generated for this deployment).
    3. Target Collection Directories (-t)
      1. A semi-colon delimited list of directories to collect files from. The collection is prioritized in the order they are provided. Environment variables may be supplied as an argument but you must escape all percent signs using a preceding carat (Ex: %USERPROFILE%\Desktop;%USERPROFILE%; - In this example files are collected from the Desktop folder and sub-folder before the user's directory). The configuration tool should print out your supplied target collection directories, if environment variables become expanded it means the percent signs were not escaped.
    4. Extension/Pattern List (-e)
      1. The extensions and or filename patterns to collect from the target directories. The file extensions are also a semi-colon delimited list. Example: .doc;.xls;*.ppt;
    5. Disk Free Space (-f)
      1. Percentage of the drive to leave free (0 – 100). If not supplied, the default is 25%. In the default case, this means that if the drive Rain Maker is executing from becomes over 75% full, Rain Maker no longer stores collect.
    6. Path To VLCMediaplayer (-vlc)
      1. To infect VLCMediaplayer player for a specific piece of removable media, the configurator needs the path to the VLCMediaplayer executable (vlc.exe) that resides on the removable media. Example: E:\vlc\vlc.exe
    7. Relative Path To Encrypted Rain Maker (-r)
      1. This is the relative path from the directory containing vlc.exe where the encrypted container for Rain Maker will reside. Note that these directories are not created by the configurator. Example: plugins\access\customplugins.dat
    8. Path To Public Key (-p)
      1. This optional argument allows the user to specify a specific key pair to use. Providing a public key prevents the configurator from generating and using a new key pair.
    9. Argument Requirements
      1. When configuring Rain Maker v1.0 you may supply all 5 arguments to generate the configured payloads and infect the media (Recommended). If mistakes are made during configuration, reinfection (running the configuration tool again) will securely delete prior configurations from the target media and replace them with the new configured payloads. However, if you have executed Rain Maker v1.0, you should reformat the drive before running the configuration tool again. The configuration tool also allows you to run the configuration in stages (more for future use – not recommended). For example, supplying only the target collection list, extension/pattern list, and the relative path to the encrypted container will generate all of the configured payloads without infecting the media. Supplying the path to the VLCMediaplayer player and the relative path to the encrypted container will infect the media with the previously generated payloads. NOTE: Always save the private key for your deployment – needed for decryption of data. The private key is stored in both the Deploy and PostProcessor folders.


(U) Post Processing

(U) Post Processor Arguments

    • (S) The post processor for Rain Maker v1.0 is a high-side (classified) utility.
    • (S) –p: the path to the drive containing collection. Example: -p E:\
    • (S) –k: the path to the private key for the deployment (required for decryption). Example: -k RainMaker_PrivKey.pem
    • (S) –o (optional): Path to where output files should be placed. If not supplied, results are placed on the user's Desktop in a folder named RainMaker.
    • (S) Results are organized by collection date. If a survey was conducted it will appear in the root of the collection date folder. The file collection directory structure is reconstructed.
