A curated library of community-developed payload scripts designed to extend and automate the Hak5 Packet Squirrel and Packet Squirrel Mark II for penetration testing and red teaming.
The Official Packet Squirrel Payload Repository
This repository serves penetration testers and red teamers who use the Hak5 Packet Squirrel devices to automate network exploitation, monitoring, and reconnaissance tasks. Users can deploy pre-built payloads or develop custom scripts to enhance their Packet Squirrel's capabilities in various network attack and monitoring scenarios.
Users must ensure they select payloads compatible with their specific Packet Squirrel hardware version to avoid malfunction. Leveraging the expanded DuckyScript commands on the Mark II device enables more powerful automation. Community contributions are encouraged, but payloads should be tested carefully before deployment in live environments.
