Nimbo-C2 - Yet Another (Simple And Lightweight) C2 Framework

About

Nimbo-C2 is yet another (simple and lightweight) C2 framework.

Nimbo-C2 agent supports x64 Windows & Linux. It's written in Nim, with some usage of .NET on Windows (by dynamically loading the CLR to the process). Nim is powerful, but interacting with Windows is much easier and robust using Powershell, hence this combination is made. The Linux agent is slimer and capable only of basic commands, including ELF loading using the memfd technique.

All server components are written in Python:

  • HTTP listener that manages the agents.
  • Builder that generates the agent payloads.
  • Nimbo-C2 is the interactive C2 component that rule'em all!

My work wouldn't be possible without the previous great work done by others, listed under credits.


Features

  • Build EXE, DLL, ELF payloads.
  • Encrypted implant configuration and strings using NimProtect.
  • Packing payloads using UPX and obfuscate the PE section names (UPX0, UPX1) to make detection and unpacking harder.
  • Encrypted HTTP communication (AES in CBC mode, key hardcoded in the agent and configurable by the config.jsonc).
  • Auto-completion in the C2 Console for convenient interaction.
  • In-memory Powershell commands execution.
  • File download and upload commands.
  • Built-in discovery commands.
  • Screenshot taking, clipboard stealing, audio recording.
  • Memory evasion techniques like NTDLL unhooking, ETW & AMSI patching.
  • LSASS and SAM hives dumping.
  • Shellcode injection.
  • Inline .NET assemblies execution.
  • Persistence capabilities.
  • UAC bypass methods.
  • ELF loading using memfd in 2 modes.
  • And more !

Installation

Easy Way

  1. Clone the repository and cd in
git clone https://github.com/itaymigdal/Nimbo-C2cd Nimbo-C2
  1. Build the docker image
docker build -t nimbo-dependencies .
  1. cd again into the source files and run the docker image interactively, expose port 80 and mount Nimbo-C2 directory to the container (so you can easily access all project files, modify config.jsonc, download and upload files from agents, etc.). For Linux replace ${pwd} with $(pwd).
cd Nimbo-C2docker run -it --rm -p 80:80 -v ${pwd}:/Nimbo-C2 -w /Nimbo-C2 nimbo-dependencies

Easier Way

git clone https://github.com/itaymigdal/Nimbo-C2cd Nimbo-C2/Nimbo-C2docker run -it --rm -p 80:80 -v ${pwd}:/Nimbo-C2 -w /Nimbo-C2 itaymigdal/nimbo-dependencies

Usage

First, edit config.jsonc for your needs.

Then run with: python3 Nimbo-C2.py

Use the help command for each screen, and tab completion.

Also, check the examples directory.

Limitations & Warnings

  • Even though the HTTP communication is encrypted, the 'user-agent' header is in plain text and it carries the real agent id, which some products may flag it suspicious.
  • When using assembly command, make sure your assembly doesn't call any exit function because it will kill the agent.
  • shellc command may unexpectedly crash or change the injected process behavior, test the shellcode and the target process first.
  • audio, lsass and sam commands temporarily save artifacts to disk before exfiltrate and delete them.
  • Cleaning the persist commands should be done manually.
  • Specify whether to keep or kill the initiating agent process in the uac commands. die flag may leave you with no active agent (if the unelevated agent thinks that the UAC bypass was successful, and it wasn't), keep should leave you with 2 active agents probing the C2, then you should manually kill the unelevated.
  • msgbox is blocking, until the user will press the ok button.

Contribution

This software may be buggy or unstable in some use cases as it not being fully and constantly tested. Feel free to open issues, PR's, and contact me for any reason at (Gmail | Linkedin | Twitter).
