Metadata-Scanner

A script to find GPS metadata and hidden data within images from webpages recursively.

Usage:

1. Modify the URLs.db to your liking (Sites that you want to scan).
2. run ./Metadata_scanner
3. run ./scan.sh

Make sure you have the URL.db file in the same directory.

DO NOT CHANGE THE DIRECTORY NAME Metadata-Scanner AS IT'S HARD-CODED IN THE SCRIPT

DO NOT PUT THE SCRIPT IN A DIRECTORY WITH SPACES - THE SCRIPT WILL BREAK IF YOU WILL

Good: /root/home/Desktop/Metadata-Scanner/Metadata_Scanner.sh

Bad: /root/home/Desktop/Some\ Directory\ with\ spaces/Metadata_Scanner.sh

Full Work Flow:

Metadata_Scanner.sh does the following:

1. Installs Nipe (Anonymity) and activates it.
2. Installs ExifTool if you don't have it.
3. Makes sure that Nipe is active before starting the script.
4. Creating necessary directories and sub-directories in the parent directory (Metadata-Scanner)
5. Downloads images from websites of your choice. (You can add URLs as you see fit without stopping the script - See 'URLs.db' file for more info)
6. The script creates another script (Continue_After_Reboot.sh) that starts the Metadata_Scanner from the last point it was terminated and in background. For more information about how to properly use and work with the script - see 'User Manual.pdf' file.

scan.sh will do the following:
7. Scans all images with Exiftool for GPS metadata. If any is found - copies the images to another directory for further analysis.
8. Scans all images with Binwalk for hidden data. If any is found - copies the images to another directory for further analysis.
9. Skips images that it had scanned before, saving time and power.
10. Removes images that it had scanned before.
