Double Double Toil and Trouble¶
Below is a listing of scripts and applications that use Stem. If you have something you would like to have included on this page then let me know!
Applications¶
Terminal status monitor for Tor. This provides a top like interface including system resource usage, connection information, and much more. |
|
Monitors the Tor consensus for a variety of issues including malformed descriptors, directory authority issues, sybil attacks, and much more. |
|
Scanner by Philipp Winter to detect malicious and misconfigured Tor exits. For more information about how it works see his Spoiled Onions research paper. |
Qt interface for launching tor. |
|
GTK interface for launching tor. |
|
Bridge with a bandwidth monitor on a BeagleBoard. |
|
Measures round-trip times for Tor circuits. |
|
Tor path simulator. |
|
One-off tasks related to Tor metrics. These mostly involve using descriptor information to answer a particular question. Tasks that involve Stem are: 1854, 6232, and 7241. |
|
Web dashboard for relay operation. |
|
Nagios check to verify that a relay is participating in the Tor network. |
|
Plugin to provide Munin graphs. |
|
Automated website scraper over Tor. |
|
IRC-like chat client using Tor hidden services. |
|
Script to estimate how much exit relays have been used. |
|
Search engine prototype for descriptor data. |
|
GUI widget to provide circuit information and an interactive interpreter. |
|
Experimental hidden service security additions |
|
Tool for making distributed hidden service requests. |
|
Measures onion service performance over time using customizable client behavior models. |
|
Distributed DNS for hidden services. |
|
Hidden service based file sharing application. |
|
GTK interface for viewing circuit information. |
|
GTK interface for viewing circuit information. |
|
GTK interface similar to TorK. |
|
Experiment to measure churn and reachability of hidden services. |
|
Python implementation of tor’s nearest neighbour ranking. |
|
Configures iptables to torify all traffic. |
|
Measurements for the tor bandwidth authorities. Interesting example of txtorcon and stem being used together. |
|
Command-line descriptor download tools |
|
Tor integration for Blockstack |
Scripts¶
Client Usage¶
-
List the path Tor uses for its present circuits.
Determine The Exit You’re Using
Tells you the exit used for each Tor connection.
Relays¶
-
Provides a summary of your inbound and outbound connections and exiting usage.
Descriptors¶
-
Download a descriptor from a Tor relay’s ORPort or DirPort.
-
Prints contact information for relays prior to a given version.
Comparing Directory Authority Flags
Compares the votes of two directory authorities, in this case moria1 and maatuska with a special interest in the ‘Running’ flag.
Votes by Bandwidth Authorities
Provides information about the current votes from Tor’s Bandwidth Authorities.
Saving and Loading a Tor Consensus
Example for writing a Tor consensus to disk, and reading it back.
-
Download bandwidth authority heuristics about relay capacity.
-
Looking for additional integrity that your descriptor is properly signed? Digests embedded in parent documents provide transitive validation.
