This repository contains the source code for a basic Remote Access Tool (RAT) implemented in C. The RAT consists of two main components: a client-side program (socket.c) and a server-side program (server.c). It enables remote command execution on a target system over a network connection.
- Client-Server Architecture: Utilizes TCP sockets for communication between the client and server.
- Command Execution: Allows the server to execute commands on the client system remotely.
- Persistence: Implements a persistence mechanism to ensure the client program runs on system startup.
- Keylogging: Provides basic keylogging functionality on the client system.
- socket.c: Client-side program written in C for Windows platforms. It establishes a connection with the server, handles command execution, and implements persistence and keylogging functionalities.
- server.c: Server-side program written in C for Unix-like systems. It listens for incoming connections from clients, receives commands from the client, and executes them.
- keys.h: Header file containing the keylogging functionality used by the client program (socket.c). It captures keystrokes and stores them in a log file.
-
Compilation:
- Compile socket.c for Windows using a suitable compiler (e.g., Visual Studio).
- Compile server.c for Unix-like systems using GCC or another compatible compiler.
-
Execution:
- Run the compiled socket executable on the client system.
- Run the compiled server executable on the server system.
- The server can send various commands to the client, including:
cd <directory>: Change directory on the client system.persist: Establish persistence on the client system.keylog_start: Start keylogging on the client system.
