Steps to build & run BufferX

• Download the BufferX source code
• Compile the source code with GCC or MSVC
• Run the executable either from your favourite code editor or command line

Once after running BufferX , open the Task Manager and you see a process running like this.

Having BufferX running on a system , you will see a .log file in the directory where the BufferX.exe is located. This file will contain the keystrokes you type.

This file will store all the keystrokes you have made previously.

Let's do a Evil thing using BufferX

Think of a situation when you need to get all the received keystrokes by a user from a Windows system everytime the system runs. You can do this by using BufferX. All you have to do is:-

• Navigate to C:\Windows\System32 and create a folder named Records. You can also create this Records wherever you want , but make sure it can't be found easily.
• Put the BufferX.exe file in the Records folder.
• Create a shortcut of BufferX.exe.
• Press Win+R , type shell:startup and hit Enter.
• Paste the shortcut inside the newly opened file explorer window.

This will run BufferX everytime the system starts and the CapturedData.log file will capture every keystrokes user makes.

Install BufferX once in a system and have fun.
