Python Ethical Hacking - Malware Packaging(2)

PACKAGING FOR WINDOWS FROM LINUX

• For best results package the program from the same OS as the target.
  • EG if the target is Windows then package the program from a Windows computer with a python interpreter.
• Install Windows python interpreter on Linux.
• Use it to convert python programs to Windows executables.

Install wine tool on Kali Linux:

dpkg --add-architecture i386 && apt-get update &&
apt-get install wine32

Install Python 3.7.4 using wine.

 Install PyInstaller on Kali Linux.

wine python.exe -m pip install /root/Downloads/PyInstaller-3.5.tar.gz

 To package the keylogger program, we need to install the pynput module first.

wine python.exe -m pip --default-time=1000 install pynput

Convert the python program to windows executable.

wine ~/.wine/drive_c/‘Program Files (x86)‘/Python37-32/Scripts/pyinstaller.exe zkeylogger.py --onefile --noconsole

 Test the zkeylogger.exe file on the Windows 10 PC. It works perfectly.
