Chimera is a potent Python script designed for destructive encryption and rapid propagation across directories. The script employs the Fernet symmetric encryption library to encrypt files in targeted directories, rendering them inaccessible.
Caution: This script is likely destructive and intended for educational purposes only. Execute the script responsibly in a controlled environment to understand its impact.
To unleash the worm, execute the script with the following command:
python3 chimera.py --path /path/to/target/directory-
Self-Replicating Worm: Chimera creates a malicious copy of itself in the same directory as the script, ensuring persistence.
-
Destructive Encryption: The worm duplicates and encrypts files in targeted directory, making them irretrievable without the encryption key (The encryption key is not printed or saved on a file. This code intended to destroy a system not for ransom.)
-
Encryption Algorithm: Utilizes the Fernet symmetric encryption library for securing replicated files, making decryption without the key practically impossible.
-
Permanent Data Loss: After the script is deployed successfully, it will remove the original files within the designated directory. (Again, use it with caution or you will regret.)
This script is created for educational purposes to demonstrate the potential dangers of destructive malware. The author takes no responsibility for any misuse or damage caused by its execution.

Use at Your Own Risk: Executing this script in a real-world scenario may result in irreversible data loss and legal consequences. Do not use this script for malicious purposes. Always seek proper authorization before conducting any testing or experiments.
