About this project

This repository is a curated archive of malware source code spanning many platforms and programming languages, maintained by vx-underground. The collection is organized into directories such as Android, Linux, Win32, MSDOS, MacOS, PHP, Python, Perl, Ruby, JavaScript, Java, and legacy Windows versions. It includes backdoors, botnets, infectors, rootkits, ransomware, stealers, exploit kits, crypters, binders, phishing pages, web panels, and Mirai-family variants. The README notes that packaged archives may use the password 'infected'. A liability disclaimer states that the maintainers are not responsible for damages resulting from access to or use of the resource. The project is intended for security research and education, with contributions credited to multiple researchers.
