About

Hi HN,<p>I’ve been working on pwneye, a CLI tool for interacting with IP cameras exposing ONVIF and RTSP services.<p>During penetration tests and red team engagements, I kept running into the same friction, with discovery, authentication testing, enumeration and stream validation spread across different tools or quick one-off scripts.<p>pwneye was built to handle that workflow end-to-end, from discovery to actually accessing and validating streams.<p>Current features include:<p>- ONVIF discovery and authentication testing (wordlists, multithreading)<p>- Post-auth enumeration (device info, users, network config, media profiles)<p>- RTSP extraction via ONVIF<p>- RTSP port detection and basic vendor identification<p>- Vendor-aware RTSP bruteforce<p>- Stream validation, preview and recording<p>- ONVIF reboot support<p>It’s still early, but already usable in real-world engagements.<p>Would be interested in feedback, especially from people who have dealt with ONVIF&#x2F;RTSP cameras or IoT security in general.<p>Repo: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;hackerest&#x2F;pwneye" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;hackerest&#x2F;pwneye</a>

AI Score Reasoning

Pwneye is currently a niche open-source utility for penetration testers rather than a venture-scale startup. While it solves a specific workflow friction in IoT security, it lacks clear monetization, significant community traction, and a moat beyond being a convenient CLI wrapper.
