mouser

Anti mouse tracking tool. You could prevent user identification using mouse movement fingerprinting.

You can read more information about this security risk on Whonix WIKI and Wikipedia

Usage

Software requires root permissions for working. (For grab device, and show device list, kloak do the same thing)

Build

/scripts/init.sh # init venv and install requirements
/scripts/build.sh # build project using nuitka

build.sh script will create a static binary for linux, using nuitka (python compiller). If you doesnt' trust nuitka you can run software without it, using sudo .venv/bin/python3 src/main.py -l

Help

usage: main.bin [-h] [-d DEVICE] [-n NAME] [-p PHYS] [-l]

options:
  -h, --help           show this help message and exit
  -d, --device DEVICE  mouse device, for example /dev/input/event16
  -n, --name NAME      substring for search in devices, for example 'E-Signal USB Gaming Mouse'
  -p, --phys PHYS      if more then 1 device with same name, you have to provide this argument (see --list)
  -l, --list           just show devices list and exit

list

Start with get devices list using --list flag:

sudo ./main.bin -l

Running

In my case i need to start /dev/input/event23:

sudo ./main.bin -n "E-Signal USB Gaming Mouse" -p "input0"

I also can use --device flag for it

sudo ./main.bin -d /dev/input/event23

Daily using

Workflow

After running, you will see a red square on the your screen. This is a your new cursor, apps can't track it, they tracks your real cursor. You can move it like a real cursor. For work with app you have to use mostly LMB, MMB, and RMB. For click you just press LMB, selecting is also working, this action will teleport your real cursor to red square position and click it. Some actions in web browsers/software could be avaliable only after hover on it without clickig, for do it using mouser you have to press MMB, this button will teleport your cursor to red-poiter position without clicking.

Buttons binding

• Middle Mouse Button will teleport cursor to pointer position
• Left Mouse Button will teleport cursor to pointer position and click it
• Right Mouse Button will teleport cursor to pointer position and use MBR
• Other buttons works like on original device

Known Bugs

• Some context menus can hide pointer (i don't know how to fix it now). In this case u can use Middle Mouse Button for detect cursor position.
• Discrepancies between the real cursor and the emulated cursor when selecting/transferring (Maybe problem with mouse acceleration, i'm not sure)
• X11 supports only, doesn't work with XWayland (python library coudn't detect mouse position correctly)
