🚀 Simple Botnet Command and Control (C&C) Server in Go.
Ive Updated This Project For Both the Server And Client On My New Repo, This is the link to the: Better Varient
✅ Getting Started
Make sure you have Go installed on your system. You can download and install it from the official site
For Windows
https://go.dev/dl/
Or for Linux Based OS'S
apt install golang
yum install golang
dnf install golang
🔧 You may need to configure the files for there IP's or Port Values
Edit Line 10-11 to change the IP to connect to and the Port for the Bot connection
const (
cncServerIP = "127.0.0.1" // Replace with your CNC server IP
cncServerPort = ":5000" // Replace with your CNC server port
)
Edit Line 14 to change the Bot Port for the Port the Bot / Client Connects at.
const (
botPort = ":5000" // Bot will listen on port 5000
)
Edit Line 218-219 for the server IP to bind to and Port for the User Login on the server
cncServerIP := "127.0.0.1"
cncServerPort := "6000"
To compile the C&C server and the bot server, follow these steps:
Clone this repository, Change folder dir to the main program file and using the Go compiler
go build main.go
go build bot.go
go run main.go
go run bot.go
⚙️ Running the C&C Server
Start the C&C server on port 1338 [default port].
./main
After Start the Bot / Client on a virtual machine or on your local machine to test it out, monitor you network to see the packet to the [ Client <--> Bot ] or [ Bot <--> Client ] , i wouldnt recommend using on public foward facing networks as it has no security implementations or anything to save you.
./main
💬 The C&C server will start listening for incoming connections from Clients on port 1338. You can change via the SRC. Login info is on a text file in this format. [Users.txt]
Admin:Passwd
Once connected to the C&C server, the administrator can send commands.
💡 Example Commands
bots: Get the number of connected bots.
clear: Clear the screen of the connected bot terminals.
logout: Log out from the C&C server.
To connect To the cnc I would recommend using mobaxterm or putty use the ip the server is running on and the botport and then you will be a login menu for the cnc
