Recorded Future 401 access error

JonasE — Wed, 28 Jun 2017 18:06:51 GMT

Hello,

I am currently in the process of moving our threat feeds into Minemeld.

One of our providers is Recorded Future, which i have enabled as a node, and set the API access key.

when i go to run a the mode, it gives me a 401 client Error: Unauthorized

naturally, i checked if the API key was incorrect, but i am still able to manually grab the feeds i need from recorded future using the API key, so that is not the issue.

am i missing something in the setup, or is this an issue with minemeld?

Also, the protoype in minemeld seems to only grab the IPlist from Recorded future; how would one go about grabbing other feeds from Recorded future?

Thanks for your time and this excellent product.

Jonas

Hi @JonasE,

sorry for the late reply, I have just tested this and it works for me.

Could you double check the API token ?

Thanks,

luigi

hi luigi

Yes, it is working for me now as well. Sorry but i do not remember exactly what the issue was, but it was on our end not Minemeld's :).

Also, I want to add More lists from recorded future in Minemeld, such as domainrisklist.

I am currently building a new class in recordedfuture.py that should be able to ingest Domain risklist as well.

I have also talked to the Recorded Future, and they mentioned that their version 1 of the api will be depreciated soon, and suggested upgrading to v2 of their api. Based on the code i see, the class IPRiskList still uses v1, is that correct?

Thank you for your time and help,

Jonas

Hi @JonasE,

thank you for your message, I will talk with RF to add support for APIv2 and more feeds. If you would like to work on it and contribute it back, that would be awesome !

Hey Luigi,

Yes, i am currently writing a DomainLists Class and implementing it using Http Requests and v2 of Recorded Future's API.

I will also update the IPRisklist with the new Request call, so that everything is up to date. If everything goes according to plan, i should be pushing the commit by the end of the week.

if i have any questions about the way the class is structured, what's the best way to contact you? through the forum?

have a nice day,

Jonas
