Workflow
Teamserver
- Go to the specific Reddit Post & post a new comment with the command ("in: ")
- Read for new comment which includes the word "out:"
- If no such comment is found, go back to step 2
- Parse the comment, decrypt it and read it's output
- Edit the existing comment to "executed", to avoid reexecuting it
Client
- Go to the specific Reddit Post & read the latest comment which includes "in:"
- If no new comment is detected, go back to step 1
- Parse the command out of the comment, decrypt it and execute it locally
- Encrypt the command's output and reply it to the respective comment ("out:" )
Below is a demonstration of the XOR-encrypted C2 traffic for understanding purposes:
Scanning results
Since it is a custom C2 Implant, it doesn't get detected by any AV as the bevahiour is completely legit.
TO-DO
- Teamserver and agent compatible in Windows/Linux
- Make the traffic encrypted
- Add upload/download feature
- Add persistence feature
- Generate the agents dynamically (from the TeamServer)
- Tab autocompletion
