Wikipedia-C2

Wikipedia C2 Blog Post

This is a demo project to demonstrate Command and Control utilizing Wikipedia. After Josh Abraham's demo of C2 utilizing Slack and ICMP, I thought I'd explore what other options in the internet's top sites could be used for C2. After reviewing Wikipedia's API, I saw that there was a user option for user-jsarbitraryKeyName that could be an "arbitrary value". I later found that it was a max length of 65535 characters, which is more than enough for C2.

Getting Started

This project requires Python 3. It works on both Windows and macOS and Linux (though I only tested on the first 2). You'll need the requests library.
