PING-007 v3.0.0

Covert ICMP C2 framework — encrypted data inside packets byte-for-byte identical to a real OS ping.

Every packet matches the exact payload structure, size, TTL, ICMP ID, and sequence start of a genuine Linux or Windows ping. Traffic is structurally indistinguishable from normal network diagnostics regardless of whether the observer has the key.

What's included

  • OS signature mimicry: exact Linux 64B (ping -s 56) and Windows 40B format
  • Three AEAD algorithms with per-session rotation: AES-256-GCM, ChaCha20-Poly1305, XOR-CFB-HMAC
  • PBKDF2-SHA256 (100 000 iterations) key derivation — no key material in the binary
  • File exfiltration: steganographic fragmentation across N×64B pings, each indistinguishable from ping -c 1
  • Bidirectional C2 shell over ICMP
  • APT timing profiles: Lazarus (5 min–1 hr), APT29 (30 min–2 hr), APT28 (10–30 min), Equation Group (1–3 days)
  • Sandbox detection, decoy pings, human timing, shell jitter
  • Build variants: standard / no-c2 / stealth / ghost / compressed / armored / all-platforms
  • 250 tests, -race clean
