iExploit Official Malware Competition #1

    Hey Guys this is the first of a number of iExploit Competitions.

    Briefing

    Rather than create a whole piece of malware/virus for this competition you will be focusing on only one part, persistance.

    The aim of this competition will be to make the most persistant piece of malware, the winner will be who's malware is the hardest to remove when ran in our virtual box.

    To make it a bit harder, you must be able to connect to the infected computer and get a shell, which will also be tested by us. This should make it harder to get this past the AV/firewall.

    The box will be a Windows XP SP2. So focus your binaries on Windows.

    Useful Links

    Competition Close Date

    - The competition will close April 1 2011 for evaluation
    - We will announce the winners shortly after.

    Rules/Guidelines
    - Must provide a .exe that will run on the system.
    - No additional programs can be used with your virus to improve it, such as worms/crypters etc
    - Must provide full source code
    - Must link to iExploit in source code
    - Prizes to be confirmed
    - Must spawn a shell as a backdoor
    - Points will be awarded for the origionality and complexity of your malware
    - Points will be awarded for commented code
    - Points will be awarded for good coding techniques and clean code

    Tips

    - Helps if it can survive reboot
    - Helps if its FUD

    Prizes
    1st. Not decided yet
    2nd. Not decided yet

    All malware in the top 3 will have a video made to shown the malware in action and put on the youtube channel and website.

    Yeah otherwise it would be cheating if you could just use a crypter and bind to a worm. ;)

    one curious thing: how exactly will it be judged? i mean if you have source code it will be too easy to remove unless we obfuscate like hell which misses the point of providing source.

    You can provide the source after it is judged.

    PM'd you with one suggestion... how about free lesson from a choice of techniques :P
  • Hm I'll see what I can do. Not much of a winblows expert but you know I'll fire up th VBox and see what I can do.

    Edit:
    Could I possibly make a version of pyBackdoor for iExploit? Like iBackdoor version 1.0? I'd make it more geared towards windows and such.

    That's the key thing I'm working on ;)
    Making it FUD + Making it hard to remove.

    Chances are it will already be FUD, based on the pyBackdoor i've seen.

    True but I'll add some polymorphism for extra FUD'ness(if thats a word). Python scripts are usually FUD.
  • Sounds nice! I'll be entering! :D

    I've already entered in the competition hopefully you find my code pretty good :p

    I wish I knew some more object oriented programming to make my backdoor better.
  • I wish I was better at programming to enter this contest. :/

    In my opinion we should have more of tutoring initially than contests.

    In my opinion its very hard to teach a person to code, they have to learn themselves as everyone has their own techniques for learning.

    Teaching someone to code is very hard unless a number of variables are all good, willingness to learn, commitment etc. I just point people in the direction of resources i've used :)
