VoidAccess is a self-hosted, MIT-licensed dark web OSINT platform that runs a 13-step pipeline from a research query to a relationship graph. It collects from Tor indexes, paste sites, code forges, security feeds and .onion seeds, applies content-safety filters, and exports STIX 2.1, MISP, Sigma, YARA, Snort, Suricata, CSV and JSON. It runs as a CLI with SQLite or as a Docker Compose stack with PostgreSQL, FastAPI and Next.js.

Hands-on walkthrough of Maigret, an open-source Python tool that checks a username against 3,000+ sites (top 500 by default) and builds a profile dossier by parsing public profile pages and recursively searching newly found usernames. Covers installation from GitHub, single-site and tag filtering, username permutation, HTML/PDF/CSV/JSON reports, graph output, and an optional LLM summary via OpenRouter. Positioned as a more thorough successor to Sherlock for username reconnaissance.

God's Eye View is an open-source, vanilla-JavaScript CesiumJS and Vite client that puts live aircraft, ships, satellites (SGP4), earthquakes, fires, public CCTV and mapped ALPR cameras on one photorealistic 3D globe. It adds cockpit tracking, FLIR/NVG sensor shaders and a voice agent built on the OpenAI Realtime API. It works without API keys, and the docs cover server-side key brokering with SSRF protection, localhost binding and a SECURITY.md threat model. For OSINT/GEOINT practitioners it is a hackable base for fusing public signals, with an explicit rule against person-tracking features.

Infoooze is an open-source command-line OSINT reconnaissance toolkit (github.com/devxprite/infoooze) that consolidates common footprinting tasks into one CLI: username enumeration across platforms, email discovery, subdomain enumeration, port scanning, WHOIS/DNS lookups, IP/HTTP header analysis, EXIF metadata extraction, GitHub recon, and URL scanning/expansion. It automatically saves results, making it a lightweight all-in-one alternative to running several separate recon tools.

Protos investigative article unpacking the DOJ's $84M civil forfeiture against Capstone Limited, a payment processor used by Dominica-based EQIBank (which handles Tether reserves), for misrepresenting itself to Wells Fargo, JPMorgan Chase and Citibank as a software firm rather than a money services business. The piece uses OSINT techniques — corporate registry tracing, shared-hosting IP correlation, DNS lookups, and court filing cross-referencing — to map operator Kotaro Shimogori's decade-long history running shell payment processors (ComCopious, iCanPay, AuthPay, Pan Digital Network) for high-risk clients including gambling sites and, per the forfeiture complaint, impersonation-fraud scam proceeds funneled through Chase accounts. It also details EQIBank's EQIFi/EQX DeFi token, and links Marlin Capital Partners and Deltec Bank figures to Tether's banking history, drawing parallels to the earlier Crypto Capital Corp seizure.

MailAccess is an open-source email OSINT framework (pip install mailaccess, MIT licensed, 1.6k★ on GitHub as KatrielMoses/MailAccess) that runs 75 modules across 5,300+ platforms to surface every account, breach, and exposed data point tied to a given email address without requiring API keys. Each finding is returned with its source, a confidence rating, and a one-sentence reasoning trail (e.g. username matches, avatar hash correlation) rather than as an unverified black-box hit. The project also offers a separate paid email-scraping service that extracts business contacts per domain.

Huntress details a 2026 DarkMe RAT campaign that ditches the zero-days (CVE-2023-38831, CVE-2024-21412) previously used by the Water Hydra/EvilNum-linked group in favor of a plain phishing email delivering a disguised .pif file. The writeup reverse-engineers the full chain — msiexec pulling a wrapped MSI, a WSF stager, three obfuscated VB6 loader DLLs (Coconout.dll, Use.dll, Finalized.dll), a novel 329-app "inverted sandbox" gate, process hollowing into a signed clspack.exe, and Locked:// protocol-handler persistence — and corrects prior public reporting by showing the payload's "single-byte XOR" is actually a broken RC4 implementation. It closes with fresh C2 infrastructure (thatawful[.]boutique, port 7712), OSINT on delivery domains (including a related ClickFix/Efimer campaign), and concrete Sigma-style hunting rules and remediation steps.

Outrider Recon is an open-source, Claude-native multi-agent OSINT and external attack-surface recon platform for authorized engagements, covering web/API, identity/SSO, cloud, secrets, and people/breach intelligence. It deliberately stops short of exploitation: active enumeration is approval-gated and intrusive validation is a human hand-off, with deterministic Python controls enforcing scope, evidence integrity, workflow state, and finding promotion around Claude skills and optional MCP-based enrichment. Output is ranked, evidence-backed finding cards (confidence/severity/handoff recommendations) meant to feed proxy-assisted testing or pen-testing rather than raw scanner dumps.

crockTail is a passive OSINT tool that, given a domain, aggregates DNS records, IP/ASN ownership, TLS certificate details, WHOIS data, and crt.sh certificate-transparency history into a single report. It layers analysis on top of the raw data: plain-language warning/info observations (near-expiry or expired certs, recently registered domains, unusual reissuance, historical subdomains from CT logs), multi-resolver (Google vs Cloudflare) DNS cross-verification to flag possible tampering, and a 0-100 confidence score per scan based on module success and cross-check agreement. It supports batch domain queries and query logging, and is explicitly limited to passive lookups and a standard TLS handshake, no port scanning or active probing.
