A hodgepodge of humble but helpful scripts created for Thinkst Canary customers.
While it's great that most products and services these days have APIs, they're often oversold. The answer to any question about a missing feature can be, "you can do anything with our product, it has an API!"
Logically, your next thought might be, "Sure, but that API would be a lot more useful if I had a few spare Python developers to throw at a few projects..."
In this spirit, we often build scripts and bits of code to help customers automate and integrate things with our API. In some cases, our fantastic customers even write the code and donate it back to us.
Happy birding!
In general, most of these scripts will need to be edited to add your Canary Console URL (in the form of ab1234ef.canary.tools) and your API key, which can be found in the Canary Console settings.
Author: Thinkst (Gareth)
Purpose This is an Ansible playbook containing a "deploy Canary Tokens" module to create Tokens on your hosts using the URI module.
Usage: Edit line 2 with your desired host group, then edit lines 4,5 and 6 with your Console API details and the desired flock.
By default the Tokens will be created with generic names however these can be tweaked by setting the "target_directory" and "token_filename" variables.
Run with "ansible-playbook token_multi_dropper.yaml"
Author: Thinkst (Adrian)
Purpose: This shell script came from a customer request to dump alerts in a spreadsheet-friendly format
Usage: As with the Powershell scripts, using this script requires a bit of manual editing. Customize the API token and Canary Console variables and the shell script can be run with no arguments to produce a CSV containing the last week's alerts.
Author: Thinkst (Adrian)
Purpose: Intended for SIEM use - only pulls unique new alerts that haven't been pulled previously and exports them to a CSV file. Suitable for a cron job that runs this command and places files in a location where the SIEM knows to pick them up and ingest them.
Usage: Edit the file to copy in your unique console URL and API key. Then, just run the script with no arguments.
Author: This bash script was kindly donated by a Thinkst customer.
Purpose: This bash script is intended to automate the process of configuring the device personality of a bird and commissioning it for use after deploying a Canary AWS EC2 instance.
Usage: Set the CANARY_HASH, CANARY_API_KEY, and FLOCK_ID values found in your Canary console.
Set your desired values for the bird's device personality in the sample config.json file. All bird services are disabled by default.
Run the script after deploying an AWS EC2 Canary instance to automatically configure the device personality and commission the bird for use.

Author: Thinkst (Adrian)
Purpose: This shell script generates unique AWS credential tokens each time it is run. It was specifically designed to run with zero dependencies (as opposed to the Python version of this script, which has a few). It is designed to run once per host, as the description for each token is customized using local environment variables (username and hostname).
Usage: This is the 'auto' version of this script (the 'arguments' version isn't finished yet), meaning you'll have to manually edit the script to set your Console and API key variables.
Compatibility: This script has been tested and confirmed to run correctly on macOS (Catalina and High Sierra) and Ubuntu 18.04.
Author: Thinkst (Adrian)
Purpose: This is a Windows version of the following Python script. It's designed to generate one unique AWS credentials token per host.
Usage: The script needs to be edited to set the Console and API key variables. Requires JQ and Curl to either be in the path, or for the path to be customized in the script.

Author: This Powershell script was kindly donated by a Thinkst customer.
Purpose: Cloudflare Workers to receive, parse, and syslog-format Canary webhook messages.
These events can be picked up using the accompanying PowerShell script without exposing a syslog collector to the Internet.
If desired, the Workers also create and publish an IP Blocklist for consumption by security products (eg. firewall).
Usage: Please see README.md within the Cloudflare folder.
Author: This Powershell script was kindly donated by a Thinkst customer
Purpose: Create Microsoft Word document tokens for a list of target systems. (one DOCX token per host)
Usage: This script doesn't require any arguments. However, you'll need to manually edit the script to add a list of hosts (starting on line 26). You'll also need to edit it if you want to use a different token type.
In the future, we'll likely update this script to take a list of hosts from an external command (e.g. net view /domain) or from an external text file. Perhaps we can also extend it in the future to output different types of tokens as well.
Author: This Powershell script was kindly donated by a Thinkst customer
Purpose: This script is intended to deploy the tokens created by CreateTokens.ps1
Usage: As with CreateTokens.ps1, no arguments are taken with this script, you'll need to manually edit it to point it at the tokens you've created and to change the destination for the token. By default, it gets placed in c:\Users\Administrator\Desktop
Author: Thinkst (Bradley)
Purpose: A sample for mass deploying tokens in parallel across Active Directory.
Usage: deploy_tokens.ps1
Author: Thinkst (Gareth)
Purpose: Quick and easy search for Tokens, then delete them.
Usage: ./find_and_delete_tokens.ps1 -domain ABC123 -auth_token DEF456 -flock flock:default -clear_incidents $True -kind http -search_string host1
Author: Javier Domínguez Gómez
Purpose: Manage all incidents by combining multiple filters and being able to paginate automatically if necessary, all in one tool.
Usage:
usage: alert_management.py [-h] -d DOMAIN [-f FLOCKID] [-s SINCE] [-a {true,false}] [-l LIMIT] [-o OUTPUTFILE]
Tool to query the Canary All Incidents API Endpoint and manage the response.
options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-d DOMAIN, --domain DOMAIN
Client domain to append as <your_domain>.canary.tools URL.
-f FLOCKID, --flockid FLOCKID
(Optional) Get all incidents for a specific flock_id.
-s SINCE, --since SINCE

(Optional) To filter acknowledged or unacknowledged incidents. Valid values are 'true',
'false'. If you do not specify this flag you will receive all incidents.
-l LIMIT, --limit LIMIT
(Optional) Parameter used to initiate cursor pagination. The limit is used to specify the page
sizes returned when iterating through the pages representing all incidents.
-o OUTPUTFILE, --outputfile OUTPUTFILE
(Optional) JSON file to dump the API query response.

Author: Thinkst (Jay)
Purpose: This script came from a customer who was testing creating large amounts of tokens. They needed a quick way to 'clean up' their console while testing, so we built this script (with many disclaimers!) to wipe a console clean of Canarytokens.
Usage: python3 delete_tokens.py <console_url> <api_key>

Usage: python3 delete_tokens.py <console_url> <api_key>
Author: Customer (Taiga Walker)
Purpose Simply edit the Domain and ApiKey variables to match your Console. Running the script will delete all factory auth strings from your Console.
Usage: python3 list_and_delete_factory_auth.py
Author: Thinkst (Support)
Purpose Automates AD joining Canaries. One or more Canaries to the same domain can be done using the cli_args flag. If you want to join a variety of Canaries (node_ids) each to domains use the to_file/from_file flag. Run python3 ad_joiner.py to_file --generate-file <file_name>.csv to generate a .csv with the headers needed. Then populate that .csv and run python3 ad_joiner.py --console <console_hash> --auth-token <api-key> from_file --file-path.
Usage:
python3 ad_joiner.py -h
python3 ad_joiner.py from_file -h and python3 ad_joiner.py cli_args -h
Author: Thinkst (Gareth)
Purpose Simply tweak the MAC prefix on your Canary to a custom one not found in the list.
Usage: python3 edit_bird_mac.py [-h] -domain DOMAIN -apikey APIKEY -nodeid NODEID -macprefix MACPREFIX
Author: Thinkst (Sheriff) Purpose: Delete all incidents from a specific flock (using the flock's name), or from a specific Canary device (using its NodeID); the tool will optionally dump all incidents to a JSON file. Usage:
./CanaryDeleter -apikey $API_KEY -console $CONSOLE_HASH -flock "Default Flock"
./CanaryDeleter -apikey $API_KEY -console $CONSOLE_HASH -node 00034d476ff8e02d -dump=false
