Tor-Rootkit : A Python 3 Standalone Windows 10 / Linux Rootkit Using Tor

Tor-Rootkit is a Python 3 standalone Windows 10 / Linux Rootkit. The networking communication get’s established over the tor network.

How To Use

  • Clone the repo and change directory:

git clone https://github.com/emcruise/TorRootkit.git
cd ./tor-rootkit

Deploy the executables: When the listener is up and running it generates a “executables” directory containing different payloads for different plattforms.

TorRootkit/

Note: The client can take some time to connect because PyInstaller executables are a bit slower and it need’s to start tor.
