I share with you a cool program that will be useful to every pentester.
It called Seeker.
Seeker utilizes HTML5, Javascript, JQuery and PHP to grab Device Information and GeoLocation with High Accuracy.
Seeker Hosts a fake website on Apache Server and uses Ngrok to generate a SSL link which asks for Location Permission and if the user allows it, we can get :
Longitude
Latitude
Accuracy
Altitude - Not always available
Direction - Only available if user is moving
Speed - Only available if user is moving
Along with Location Information we can also get Device Information without any permissions :
Operating System
Platform
Number of CPU Cores
Amount of RAM - Approximate Results
Screen Resolution
GPU information
Browser Name and Version
Public IP Address
This tool is purely a Proof of Concept and is for Educational Purposes Only, Seeker shows what data a malicious website can gather about you and your devices and why you should not click on random links and allow critical permissions such as Location etc.
Other tools and services offer IP Geolocation which is not very accurate and does not give location of user.
Generally if a user accepts location permsission, Accuracy of the information recieved is accurate to approximately 30 meters.
Note : On iPhone due to some reason location accuracy is approximately 65 meters.
Cool, huh?
Setup guide for Kali Linux (just remove unnecessary spaces in the commands "git clone" and add https :
# After Installation just type seeker in console
