Requires the specific M5Stack Cardputer ADV hardware and PlatformIO, flashing goes through an SD card, not over the air.
LabzOS is open source firmware for the M5Stack Cardputer ADV, a small handheld device built around an ESP32-S3 chip. It turns the device into a pocket wireless security testing tool with a cyberpunk themed interface, and it also includes a voice assistant that can talk to a locally hosted AI language model. The README is direct about the fact that many of its wireless features are only legal to use on your own equipment or with explicit written permission, since some functions can disrupt other people's networks or devices. On the WiFi side, the firmware can scan for access points and devices, sniff various kinds of wireless packets, detect deauthentication attacks against other devices, and also send its own deauthentication and spam signals, among other things. For Bluetooth Low Energy, it can scan nearby devices, detect trackers like AirTags and card skimmers, and send its own advertising spam. A combined feature called Fox Hunter watches for both WiFi and Bluetooth signals from a configurable list of device types. With optional add on radio hardware, it can also work with SubGHz and 2.4GHz signals, or with LoRa and GPS. Beyond the wireless tools, LabzOS bundles everyday utilities like a calculator, unit converter, timer, and compass, plus an infrared remote feature that can turn off many televisions. The AI voice chat feature needs a separate computer running a compatible local language model server, and optionally a voice recognition and speech proxy, though none of this is required to use the wireless tools. Building the firmware requires the PlatformIO toolchain, and the process is a short set of command line steps: clone the repository, optionally copy a sample configuration file, then run the build command. Getting the resulting firmware onto the device works through an SD card rather than over the air, since wireless updates are described as unreliable on this hardware. The project borrows techniques from several other open source wireless security tools and is released under the GPL-3.0 license, which it says is required because of those borrowed pieces.
Open source firmware turning the M5Stack Cardputer ADV into a pocket wireless security toolkit with a local AI voice assistant.
Mainly C. The stack also includes C, PlatformIO, ESP32-S3.
Licensed under GPL-3.0, meaning you can use and modify it but must keep it open source and credit the license, as required by the projects it derives from.
Setup difficulty is rated moderate, with roughly 1h+ to a first successful run.
Mainly developer.
