A free, offline desktop app that turns the raw output of ESP32 pentest firmwares β Marauder, Bruce, Ghost ESP, nyanBOX, OUI-SPY β into validated, mapped, searchable intelligence. Point it at an SD card or folder and it checks every capture, throws out the junk, and makes the good stuff usable β no matter which firmware produced it. No account, no cloud, no telemetry.

The problem: ESP32 firmwares are great at capturing, but they leave behind a chaotic SD card of .pcap, WiGLE .csv, .hc22000, .sub/.ir/.nfc, GPS logs and text logs β and half of them are silently broken. NetzSec Loot is the desktop tool that makes sense of it all.
- π©Ί Capture Doctor β validates every file the moment you import it, and tells you why a file is bad (0-byte, corrupt, wrong format) instead of silently failing.
- πΆ Networks β every Wi-Fi network across every capture, deduplicated by BSSID and enriched with the real manufacturer (built-in 52k-vendor OUI database), signal, channel, band and GPS. Filter, favorite, tag and export any slice.
- π± Devices β client stations seen probing, with vendor lookup and automatic randomized-MAC detection.
- π Handshakes β PMKID + EAPOL captures with real network names and a ready-to-paste hashcat command.
- π Cracked β import a hashcat potfile; see recovered passwords with strength analysis and reuse detection.
- π‘ Signals β Sub-GHz (frequency/band/protocol), IR (button counts) and NFC with the tag technology decoded (Mifare Classic, NTAG, DESFireβ¦).
- πΊοΈ Wardrive map β a dark map plotting geolocated networks, colored by encryption, with per-security layer toggles.
- π Analytics β vendors, channels, bands, SSIDs, encryption/security posture, timelines, duplicates and auto-insights.
- π§° File tools β dedupe/clean wordlists, merge or split big files, and merge multiple WiGLE CSVs into one clean log.
- π€ Export β WiGLE CSV, KML, CSV, JSON, HTML reports and combined
.hc22000for cracking. - π 100% local β no accounts, no telemetry, nothing leaves your machine. Every operation asks before it reads or writes a file.

NetzSec Loot prepares and hands off β it validates, organizes, maps and exports your captures for tools like hashcat. It is not a device flasher or a live device controller.
