Learn how to hack a PC or remote system using Trojan & Backdoor: Download LOST DOOR RAT all versions here for free


Lost Door is a backdoor trojan horse family of more than 10 variants which can infect Windows operating systems from 95 to XP. It was created by OussamiO and built using Visual Basic. It uses the typical server, server builder, and client backdoor program configuration to allow a remote user, who uses client, to execute arbitrary code on the compromised machine (which runs the server whose behavior can be controlled by the server editor). The server component (75,053 bytes) when running, connects to a predefined IP address on TCP port 2185, awaiting commands from the remote user who uses the client component can execute arbitrary code at will on the compromised machine.
Features

Lost Door allows many malicious actions on the victim's machine. Some of its abilities include:
  • Reverse connection
  • Webcam shot
  • Date and time manager
  • printer
  • Control panel
  • PC control
  • Executor
  • Dos command
  • Windows manager
  • Screen shot
  • Remote server manager
  • Server remover
  • Ip Grabber
  • Server Downloader
  • Icon Changer
  • Audio Streaming
  • Encrypt Settings

  • Find files
  • Change remote screen resolution
  • Information about remote computer
  • Clipboard manager
  • Internet Explorer options
  • Running Process
  • Online key-logger
  • Offline keylogger
  • Fun Menu

Infection Method

Lost Door has a server creator with features that allow it to be undetected by antivirus and firewall software, and also allow it to stealthily run in the background. The software only runs completely (including rootkit) in Windows XP/2000. Such features include disabling security software, removing and disabling system restore points, and displaying a fake error message to mislead the victim.


This version is now detectable by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. For other AV's, I have not checked.

Server
Dropped Files:
c:\WINDOWS\system32\dlllhost.exe
Size: 129,808 bytes

Added to Registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run "Winupdate"
Data: C:\WINDOWS\system32\dlllhost.exe

A Universal Hacker Emblem: The Glider Emblem

What is Hacker Emblem? A Universal Hacker Emblem: The Glider Emblem

Emblem that represents the entire hacker community

The Linux folks have their penguin and the BSDers their daemon. Perl's got a camel, FSF fans have their gnu and OSI's got an open-source logo. But there is no emblem that represents the entire hacker community. This is a proposal that we adopt one — the glider pattern from the Game of Life.

What will I be saying if I display it?

When you put the glider emblem on your web page, or wear it on clothing, or display it in some other way, you are visibly associating yourself with the hacker culture.This is not quite the same thing as claiming to be a hacker Yourself — that is a title of honour, that generally has to be conferred by others rather than self-assumed. But by using this emblem, you express sympathy with hackers' goals, hackers' values, and the hacker way of living. See the FAQs page for further discussion.

Who should not use this emblem?

If you think hacking is about breaking into other peoples' computers, those of us the emblem was invented for do not want you displaying it. Go invent your own emblem, cracker. We'll find some way to shame and reject you publicly if you mess with ours.

I used to have a prohibition against commercial use here. A number of people have argued convincingly that this is impractical and perhaps unfair. But keep it tasteful, or you will be flamed.


How can I use it?


The glider is not copyrighted or trademarked. The recommended way to use it is on a web page, with an image and a link back to either this page or direct to How To Become A Hacker. Here is a snippet of XHTML you can paste into a page.
[a href='http://www.catb.org/hacker-emblem/']
[img src='http://www.catb.org/hacker-emblem/glider.png' alt='hacker emblem' /][/a]
NOTE: Replace [ & ] with greater & smaller sign
It will look as below:

But what if the wrong people start using it?


A lot of people think this emblem will become worse than useless because script kiddies, crackers and wannabes will be the predominant ones to use it. Yes, that is a risk — but other emblems, like the peace sign or the A-for-anarchy, that have similar risks have retained a lot of utility. If it helps, I've gotten a lot of email from people picking up on it that I know to be hard-core hackers, and I've seen almost no abuse of it.

The Worst Security Hack Ever: Digital world also requires trust


Breach Extends Beyond the Victimized Company

September 22, 2011 - Eric Chabrow
The breach earlier this month of certificate authority DigiNotar could prove to be the worst security event ever to happen on the Internet because it threatens, at its core, a fundamental principle of Internet transactions - economic and social - trust.
Hackers broke into DigiNotar computers and stole the private key used by the Dutch company to assure the trustworthiness of the digital certificates it issued to website operators to guarantee users that the site visited is the one they intended to access. Employing the stolen private key, the hackers issued counterfeit certificates aimed at fooling visitors into believing some of the websitse they're accessing are the ones they intended to visit, and not the sham sites they've arrived at.

Functioning in our society, whether in the real or digital world, requires trust. 

Believed to be backers of the Iranian government, the hackers used the counterfeit certificates on Gmail, allowing them to direct users to a false site, in which they could spy on the messages dissidents sent, identifying them and those who they sent their e-mails. According to preliminary audit conducted by the IT security firm Fox-IT, more than 500 counterfeit DigiNotar certificates were issued to a wide range of organizations including the CIA; British and Israeli intelligence services; Internet companies Google, Microsoft and Mozilla; the social networks Facebook and Twitter; blog host Wordpress and credit-reporting agency Equifax.
The problem is that there is no way for visitors to verify the validity of the certificates. Check the URL, and one sees the https (https://gmail.com, for instance) in the URL that authenticates a trusted site. Click on a browser icon such as a locked padlock, and the window that pops up confirms the certificate was issued by a legitimate certification authority, even if it's a fake one.
Of course, if the browser company knows of the issuance of counterfeit digital certificates under the brand of a legitimate company, it can remove that company's digital certificates from the list of verified certificates, as many did with DigiNotar. But most DigiNotar certificates are legitimate, and if they're not on the list of verified certificate authorities on Chrome, Internet Explore, Firefox and other browsers, legitimate certificates have the same value as the counterfeit ones.
For DigiNotar, the breach has led to its demise; a Dutch court is liquidating the company under that nation's bankruptcy's law (see DigiNotar Declares Bankruptcy). Yet, DigiNotar could prove to be but one small victim of this breach, a footnote, perhaps. That's because functioning in our society, whether in the real or digital world, requires trust. The fundamental precepts of IT security are availability, confidentiality and integrity. Add them together, they equate trust. The DigiNotar breach places in jeopardy those fundamental precepts of IT security. And that puts all of us in jeopardy.

Top Indian Hackers List: Indian Hackers Facts | Real Truth Revealed


There has been a lot of commotion in the Indian Hacking scene lately, and I express some pretty strong views regarding that. Long Live Indian HackersWhen it comes to hacking, every other guy tends to tape the "hacker" word with his name/codename without even realizing its significance. Then there is Facebook ...Have a look at it -
X hacker , Y hacker, big hacker, small hacker , cat hacker, mouse hacker, black hacker, white hacker. Seriously man..What were they thinking ?
Seriously guys..what were they thinking ?! I am still counting the number of Indian Cyber Army India has and the number of groups tend to increase recycling all the content, same VIP forums, same deface techniques, zero original research. Then there is Ankit Fadiya...dont let me even get started

In the end tired of all the bullshit around, I decided to cover an article on the REAL INDIAN HACKERS (or Hackers of Indian Origin), folks who are actually dedicated to security and are hackers in real sense. Lets start, shall we ?


& also @ Ethical Hacker Ankit Fadia Hacking Seminar Truth Reveled: Pure waste of Time

Pranav Mistry
Pranav Mistry - The famed 6th sense developer
The famed 6th sense developer,Pranav Mistry is a research assistant and a PhD candidate at MIT Media Lab. SixthSense has recently attracted global attention. Among some of his previous work, Pranav has invented Mouseless - an invisible computer mouse; intelligent sticky notes that can be searched, located and can send reminders and messages; a pen that can draw in 3D; and a public map that can act as Google of physical world. Pranav has commercialized his invention, the sixth sense andSixthSense is now being actively used at NASA.

It is rumored that Facebook tried to acquire the technology from Pranav for a reportedly $2 billion and 5% ownership of Facebook, but Pranav decided to open source it instead.

Bravo for his efforts, we are able to root painlessly using UnREVOked.
Now only if UnrEVOked can release UnrEVOked 3.33 soon :)

Vivek Ramchandran

He was among the Top 10 Indian finalists in the Microsoft shootout competition among the list of 65000 participants.
Vivek Ramachandran has been working in the computer and network security domain, in some form or the other, for the past 7 years and has worked with Industry giants like Reliance, Cisco, Microsoft. He was among the Top 10 Indian finalists in the Microsoft shootout competition among the list of 65000 participants. Then he decided to join Airtight Networks and there discovered Caffe Latte attack attack along with his colleague MD Sohail Ahmad from Airtight Networks ,the wifi hacking technique that doesn't required you to be in active vicinity of the wifi zone.

That said, he is one of the researcher to lookout.

Almost everybody at NULL Security Community & Garage4hackers

I said it before and I will say it again, the Only active Indian hacking community is NULL community, and the best Indian Hacking Forum where real hackers meet is garage4hackers.com hands on.
Only active Indian hacking community is NULL community
Shoutz to garage crew :)

Folks at Indian Honeynet Chapter

Now we are talking..Indian Honeynet chapter is the collaborative effort of the best geeks and hackers .The focus of honeypot is on Worms and Botnets and developing an Open Source tool to study and counter brute force attacks/ phishing through wifi. Its also being setup as potential web-app honeypot,and aims on improving detection and forensic techniques. Heading the ship are L Shriram, K K Mookhey, Amit Chugh, Asim Jakhar and a lot of professionals who are dedicated in the field of computer security.

Hari Prasad

The famed security researcher Hari Prasad is the winner of EFF Pioneer award
The famed security researcher Hari Prasad is the winner of EFF Pioneer award, as he along with Alex Halderman, and Rop Gonggrijp were able to study an electronic voting machine (EVM) and found significant vulnerabilities that would not be difficult to execute. For his troubles, Prasad was arrested and jailed in August, held without bail in Mumbai for a week. Though he is now out on bail and in the United States, he still faces criminal prosecution for alleged theft of the EVM and other charges.

The genius of the Indian system is that instead of making machines tamper proof and more efficient, they arrested him.
According to the Indian news agency PTI, the magistrate who released Prasad on bail noted that "no offence was disclosed with Hari Prasad's arrest and even if it was assumed that [the electronic voting machine] was stolen it appears that there was no dishonest intention on his part...he was trying to show how [electronic voting] machines can be tampered with."
Jayant Krishnamurthy

Jayant Krishnamurthy
Jayant Krishnamurthy is a Ph.D. candidate in Computer Science, CMU and his interests include are machine learning, machine reading, common sense reasoning, information extraction, knowledge representation, and their applications in AI and NLP (shamelessly taken from his website). He is one of the researchers who are behind designing MD6 algorithm (yeah you heard it right, the evolution of MD5). He is a top level computer theorist and researcher and is a real life hacker. He teaches computer and network security and you must ahve a look at the problems and solutions at the given link.

For the lighter side,you can have a look at the funny flash movie based on his real life experiences at high school.

I guess, you now have an actual idea of the Indian hackers now :) These guys are real and are deemed worthy of having the hacker emblem with them.
Long Live Indian Hackers

Website Defacement Proves You are Impotent




Yep..I do get angry. More angry than anything often now and then.

5 rules I abide -
  1. I don't respect anyone at all who cant code and say they are hackers. They taint the word.
  2. I respect anyone who has the guts to confess he is a skid but is willing to learn and code and contribute to the scene. Everybody was a skid once.
  3. I am against anything related to defacements and exploitation if done using stolen/borrowed/any one else's code/shell/exploit/kernel patch. If its not your own, the defacement proves you are a skid and impotent.
  4. Complimenting the 3rd point, if you don't know what an exploit does at core/you cant read its code and cant comprehend it to the lowest level, and you are still using it to your whims and fancy, again, you disgust me.
  5. I hate anyone who ceases to pass any knowledge, the fool tries to hide his knowledge cuz he is afraid that it will create competition, the honest will reflect it to the fullest as he knows, the more he knows, the more he spreads, the greater the opportunities to create more creative code and thinking process.


Consider it my anger that NO knowledge sharing is done in any of the prominent Indian hacking forums out there, be it andhrahackers , indishell, hackers5, or anywhere. Same old stuff…leached from every possible where… The rest are not willing to share what they know due to their egos the size of Texas. At best you can go togarage4hackers , security xploded and can get your daily fix, or log into efnet/freenode and bitchx your daily fix of code and security.

When guys like (content suppressed) can start their own community and start commercializing the security scene for their own fucking profits, you know its time to back out. The real community n|u (null) stands out and is the only place where you can interact with some true hacker souls

Beware of New Electronic Technology: Thieves have also got tech savvy now


A real incident, please check your mobile and GPS, if you have it in your car. Thieves have also got tech savvy now.
GPS
A couple of weeks ago a friend told me that someone she knew had their car broken into while they were at a football game. Their car was parked on the green which was adjacent to the football stadium and specially allotted to football fans. Things stolen from the car included a garage door remote control, some money and a GPS which had been prominently mounted on the dashboard.
When the victims got home, they found that their house had been ransacked and just about everything worth anything had been stolen. The thieves had used the GPS to guide them to the house. They then used the garage remote control to open the garage door and gain entry to the house. The thieves knew the owners were at the football game, they knew what time the game was scheduled to finish and so they knew how much time they had to clean out the house. It would appear that they had brought a truck to empty the house of its contents.
Something to consider if you have a GPS - don't put your home address in it. Put a nearby address (like a store or gas station) so you can still find your way home if you need to, but no one else would know where you live if your GPS were stolen.

MOBILE PHONES
I never thought of this.......
This lady has now changed her habit of how she lists her names on her mobile phone after her handbag was stolen. Her handbag, which contained her cell phone, credit card, wallet... Etc...was stolen. 20 minutes later when she called her hubby, from a pay phone telling him what had happened, hubby says 'I received your text asking about our Pin number and I've replied a little while ago.' When they rushed down to the bank, the bank staff told them all the money was already withdrawn. The thief had actually used the stolen cell phone to text 'hubby' in the contact list and got hold of the pin number. Within 20 minutes he had withdrawn all the money from their bank account.
Moral of the lesson:Do not disclose the relationship between you and the people in your contact list.
Avoid using names like Home, Honey, Hubby, Sweetheart, Dad, Mom, etc....
And very importantly, when sensitive info is being asked through texts, CONFIRM by calling back.
Also, when you're being text by friends or family to meet them somewhere, be sure to call back to confirm that the message came from them. If you don't reach them, be very careful about going places to meet 'family and friends' who text you.

PLEASE PASS THIS ON
I never thought about the above!
As of now, I no longer have 'home' listed on my cell phone.
This gives us something to think about with all our new electronic technology.

What is DoS or DDoS attacks: Denial of Service Attack Tutorial


For any attack to be successful, there should be a vulnerability which exists in the system.  Generally the vulnerabilities that exist in the software such as Operating System and Applications can be removed by implementing proper patch management solutions. But there exists an inherent vulnerability in all the systems which is called “Limitations” and that is the vulnerability that is being targeted by DoS or DDoS attacks.
To better understand that let us take an example of a fully patched web server hosting an e-commerce application, and availability of that application stands at the core of business for it to succeed.  Now since the server that hosts the applications is most critical business asset it has been properly patched and any operating system or application assumingly does not have any vulnerabilities. But as any other system the server has following limitations.
• Bandwidth
• Memory
• Processing Power
If any or all of these resources are consumed to the fullest, the end user access to e-commerce application service would get affected, thus creating a denial of service affect.
An attack that would make a service go unavailable is called DoS attack. Apart from exploiting vulnerabilities as discussed above, the DoS attack can also be performed by exploiting resources limitations.  Some of the attacks that are possible on any computer system are given below:
• Syn Flood
• UDP Flood
• Malformed Packets
• TCP RST Attack
• ICMP Flood
Since the attacker also uses a very similar computer system as that of Target, the attacker also suffers the same problem. That is to make the Target’s CPU go high, the attacker’s computer will also have to work hard enough thus making its own CPU go high. To over come these issues, attackers came with a new method where a small amount of attack can be initiated from large number of computer systems towards same target thus creating a DoS affect for target without creating one for self, and that method of attack is called Distributed Denial of Service Attack or in short DDoS attack.

Truth About Facebook - CIA, U.S. government - Everything Related !



The Truth about who owns facebook. In todays world of advanced modern technology, there are billions of people that use Internet as a means of communication. The era of Big Brother is upon us. George Orwell predicted it and, now we live it.

Every day just walking down the street for a burger, our faces are recorded on numerous camera's. Even whilst waiting for our burgers to burn, our image is being burned elsewhere.

Todays society is a paranoid one, and rightly so. We are never really alone. Business' record every keystroke and every action in an employee's day.

International Intelligence agencies scan and flag any messages containing certain buzz words. Why? Because, as Mulder warned us (and Sculley) weekly for many years, "The truth is out there!"

The question has been raised that "Face-book" has connections with the CIA.

Facebook has a resource that any secret intelligence agency in the world would die for. Access to over 60 million people's names, addresses, friends, activities, details about them, even phone numbers and emails.

Given the CIA's shady past and repertoire for doing anything to get information they need (You've seen the news yourself: torture, abuse, abductions). You would consider that at least one secret agency would attempt to contact Facebook, the fastest growing social networking website in the world.

"Facebook may also collect information about you from other sources, such as newspapers, blogs, instant messaging services, and other users of the Facebook service through the operation of the service (e.g., photo tags) in order to provide you with more useful information and a more personalized experience.

"By using Facebook, you are consenting to have your personal data transferred to and processed in the United States."

"When you use Facebook, you may set up your personal profile, form relationships, send messages, perform searches and queries, form groups, set up events, add applications, and transmit information through various channels. We collect this information so that we can provide you the service and offer personalized features"

"We may use information about you that we collect from other sources, including but not limited to newspapers and Internet sources such as blogs, instant messaging services, Facebook Platform developers and other users of Facebook, to supplement your profile."

After Facebook was created by Harvard student Mark Zuckerberg in February 2004, it was quite succesful. It was brought to the attention of venture capitalist Peter Thiel, founder and former CEO of Paypal. He invested US$500,000, which really got Facebook of its feet. Facebook's first angel investors appear to be connected to the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).

Everything is interconnected. Everything is related. DARPA became internationally famous when they launched "Information Awareness Office", a program for the U.S government. It was an abomination of human rights as the Government could browse internet activity, credit card purchase histories, airline ticket purchases, car rentals, tax returns and any other personal details.

Sound familiar? Facebook, people, Facebook. Hopefully we can uncover the truth, make known the link between the CIA, the U.S. government and Facebook. Everything is related.

How to boost your WiFi signal with a beer can



I love a good hack, especially one that requires me to throw back a cold one before hand (or during). This simple wifi boost has actually been shown to increase signal strength by at least 2 to 4 bars. And, well, I will drink to that.
These instructions came to us via The Chive and we think they are most definitely worth checking out. But here is the most important question: what kind of beer will you use?
For this project you are going to need scissors, a utility knife, some adhesive putty and an empty beer can. More than one empty beer can is acceptable but don’t kid yourself, the router only needs the one.






The first step is to wash out your empty beer can, unless of course said beer is a can of Pabst Blue Ribbon. If it is PBR, promptly go drink a better beer. You really should be ashamed of yourself.
Once the can has dried, you will want to remove it’s pull tab.
Only perform this next step if you have not been drinking. Using the utility knife, saw off the bottom of the can. Chances are your can will not have a red dotted line. If you see one, put down the knife…you’ve had too much beer.



You’ll notice in the above step that the can’s pull tab has returned. Clearly, there are only two possible reasons for this. One, you are really drunk and you never removed the tab in the first place. Or–the more likely answer–beer cans can regenerate themselves.



It’s the home stretch! You just need to attach your modded beer can to the wifi router. Hopefully no other parts of the can have actually grown back. You now have beer-fi!
So, what kind of beer did you use?
