offensive-crypto-attacks
Systematic methodology for identifying and exploiting cryptographic implementation weaknesses in real-world applications. Covers padding oracle attacks against CBC-mode ciphers with PKCS7 padding (Vaudenay's original attack through modern padbuster automation), ECB mode exploitation including block cut-and-paste and byte-at-a-time decryption, hash length extension attacks against SHA1/SHA256/MD5-based MACs using HashPump, RSA vulnerabilities including small public exponent, common modulus, Bleichenbacher PKCS1v1.5 padding oracle, and Coppersmith's method for partial key recovery. Addresses weak PRNG exploitation targeting time-seeded generators and Mersenne Twister MT19937 state recovery from observed outputs, timing side-channel attacks against comparison operations, nonce reuse in AES-GCM leading to authentication key recovery, and key derivation weaknesses including insufficient iteration counts and missing salts. Primary tooling includes padbuster, RsaCtfTool, hashpump, and PyCrypt

Primary tooling includes padbuster, RsaCtfTool, hashpump, and PyCrypt It's a reusable SKILL.md instruction set that loads into your AI coding assistant on demand, no prompt engineering, no copy-pasting every session.
How do I install the offensive-crypto-attacks skill?
Run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install claude-red-offensive-crypto-attacks` from your terminal. The CLI writes the SKILL.md to the correct location for your AI tool (e.g. ~/.claude/skills/claude-red-offensive-crypto-attacks/ for Claude Code or ~/.cursor/skills/ for Cursor with --target cursor) and adds it to your project's .skills.json lockfile.
Which AI tools does offensive-crypto-attacks work with?
offensive-crypto-attacks runs in Claude Code. It follows the open Agent Skills standard (SKILL.md), so the same skill works in every supported tool without modification.
Is the offensive-crypto-attacks skill free?
Yes. Every skill on skills-hub.ai is free and open-source. There are no premium tiers, paywalls, or usage limits. You only pay for whatever AI assistant you're already using.
How do I use offensive-crypto-attacks after installing it?
In Claude Code, type `/claude-red-offensive-crypto-attacks` (or whatever slash command the skill registers) and the AI follows the skill's instructions immediately. You can also reference it by name in natural language, your AI loads the skill into context when relevant.
Can I share the offensive-crypto-attacks skill with my team?
Yes. Commit your project's .skills.json lockfile and teammates run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install` (no args) to install every skill at the exact version you pinned. Organization-scoped installs work via skills-hub.ai organizations.
