Highlights

Objective

This release is focused on adding high-value features to Infection Monkey.

New Features

Propagation via RDP

Infection Monkey can now use RDP to propagate itself to Windows targets. According to The DFIR Report's 2022 Year in Review, 41.2% of lateral movement occurs via RDP. Infection Monkey users can now simulate this behavior in their environments and ensure they are prepared to detect and handle it.

Cryptojacker simulation

A new cryptojacker payload has been added that performs cryptographic functions with the goal of consuming a configurable amount of CPU. It can also consume a configurable quantity of RAM, as well as simulate some bitcoin mining traffic.

Steal credentials from Chrome

Credentials can be stolen from Chrome-based browsers and used for lateral movement. On Windows hosts, credentials can be stolen from Chrome and Edge. On Linux hosts, credentials can be stolen from Chrome and Chromium.

Plugin installation menu

Infection Monkey provides capabilities for exploitation/propagation, credentials stealing, and payloads via plugins. These plugins are now installable from a remote repository. This results in some highly impactful advantages for users.

  1. Users can receive and use new features without completely reinstalling Infection Monkey.
  2. Users can receive bug fixes in certain modules without completely reinstalling Infection Monkey.
  3. Users can choose not to install certain plugins, eliminating the risk of certain kinds of misconfigurations. This makes Infection Monkey safer in mission-critical environments.
