PHP Backdoor

Name: PHP Backdoor
Purpose: Security Auditing Tool
License: Public Domain
Description:
This is a very versatile PHP backdoor I wrote. It started as a modification to the one that comes with Backtrack but I later decided it would be better to rewrite it so I can release it on my terms. It includes many features that the one in Backtrack lacks and a number of bug fixes. With this you can do the following:

  • Traverse Directories
  • View Files
  • Edit Files
  • Download Files
  • Delete Files
  • Upload Files
  • Execute MySQL Commands
  • Execute Shell Commands
  • Bypasses mod_security
  • Highlight Likely Database Interaction Files in a Directory
  • CHMOD777 Directory
  • GZip and Download Directory
  • Works on Linux and Windows (CHMOD and GZip only works on Linux)
