Arcanus Framework : Hacking Linux OS Part 1

Hello aspiring hackers, till now we have only seen hacking windows operating systems with customized payload generators. Today we will see hacking Linux OS with Arcanus framework.

Although not as great as Windows, people using Linux OS are growing day by day. In my opinion, Linux OS is a bit easy to hack with payload generators as there is a general myth that Linux is immune to malware. Some of my friends use Linux as dual boot to keep themselves safe from virus.

Ok, now let us see how to hack Linux OS with Arcanus Framework. Start and select the option 3 since we are generating a Linux payload. If you are new to Arcanus Framework, go here.

Hit Enter. Enter your IP address (Kali Linux in this case) and the listening port as shown below.

Hit Enter. It will generate the payload in the same directory start to automatically listen for a reverse shell as shown below.

Send the generated payload to our victim. When he runs it, we should get a shell on his system as shown below.

Windows hacking with Arcanus : Part 1

Hello aspiring hackers. Today we will learn how to do Windows hacking with Arcanus Framework. Arcanus is a customized payload generator that can generate payloads which are undetectable by almost all of the antiviruses (till date ). This could be very useful in penetration testing.

Today we will see how to get a shell on a remote Windows system with this tool. Before we do anything, we need to install golang. Install Golang and then clone the Arcanus git as shown below.

Navigate to the ARCANUS directory created and view its contents. We should see a file ARCANUS_x86. We will generate a x_86 payload. First change its permissions as shown below.

Next run this file. You should see an ARCANUS logo as shown below.

You will see five options as shown below. Since we are about to hack windows, we will generate a windows payload by choosing option 2.

It will prompt you for the attacker IP address ( in our case the address of Kali Linux ) and a port on which you to listen for the reverse shell. Enter the values and hit “Enter”.

It will generate the payload and automatically start a listener as shown below.

The payload will be generated with the name “payload.exe” as shown below in the ARCANUS directory.

Next we need to send this payload to the victim. When the victim clicks on the payload we sent, we will get a shell of the victim as shown below. 

That’ s all in Windows hacking with Arcanus. See how to hack Linux with Arcanus.
