autochrome

This tool downloads, installs, and configures a shiny new copy of Chromium.

It includes nifty things like:

  • Turning off all those annoying auto-updaters!
  • Sweet colored themes for high visibility!
  • No XSS auditor!
  • Automatic proxy configuration! (uses 127.0.0.1:8080)
  • An annoying infobar because it doesn't check TLS certs!
  • Basic integration with Burp if you install the included Burp extension
  • An extension for super easy cookie editing!

Currently, the following OSes are supported:

  • OS X 10.9 (Mavericks) and higher
  • Ubuntu 16.04 (and other XDG-supporting Linuxes)

ruby version 2.0 or higher is needed and comes with 10.9 and up. sqlite and unzip are needed for proper functioning. apt-get install unzip sqlite3 will install the dependencies on Debianesque Linuxes.

Quickstart

  1. ruby autochrome.rb
  2. Launch Chromium.
    • MacOS: open ~/Applications/Chromium.app
    • Linux: ~/.local/autochrome/chrome
  3. Open the "Getting Started" bookmark.

Installing

Execute the following command: ruby autochrome.rb

If you've already installed Chromium with this tool before, run ruby autochrome.rb -c to delete the old installation and install a new one.

If you just want to recreate the profiles without redownloading Chrome, run ruby autochrome.rb -P.

Use the -h flag to see all of the options.

The "versions" used with this tool are Chromium revisions. You can get a list of the last known good versions here (use the six-digit number after refs/heads/master), and you can find out what revision a given build of Chrome uses here.

Running

Once you've installed Chromium, it will be placed in the ~/Applications/ directory on OS X or the ~/.local/autochrome/ directory on Linux.

The command open ~/Applications/Chromium.app is one way to launch it on OS X. ~/.local/autochrome/chrome is a way to launch it on Linux.

Once you've launched Chromium, open the "Getting Started" bookmark.

Bundled extensions

Settings Resetter

Makes it easy to wipe cookies or all browser history from the menu bar.

Cookie Monster

Provides a Cookies pane in the Inspector to view details about cookies. Menu bar icon does nothing useful.

Autochrome Integration

Adds a tag to the outgoing user agent to let Burp identify it. Menu bar icon does nothing.
