How to build a monkey binary from scratch.
The monkey is composed of three separate parts.
* The Infection Monkey itself - PyInstaller compressed python archives
* Sambacry binaries - Two linux binaries, 32/64 bit.
* Mimikatz binaries - Two windows binaries, 32/64 bit.
--- Windows ---
1. Install python 2.7. Preferably you should use ActiveState Python which includes pywin32 built in.
You must use an up to date version, at least version 2.7.10
https://www.python.org/download/releases/2.7/
2. Install pywin32 (if you didn't install ActiveState Python)
Install pywin32, minimum build 219
http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/files/pywin32
3. Add python directories to PATH environment variable (if you didn't install ActiveState Python)
a. Run the following command on a cmd console (Replace C:\Python27 with your python directory if it's different)
setx /M PATH "%PATH%;C:\Python27;C:\Pytohn27\Scripts
b. Close the console, make sure you execute all commands in a new cmd console from now on.
4. Install pip
a. Download and run the pip installer
https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py
5. Install further dependencies
a. install VCForPython27.msi
https://aka.ms/vcpython27
b. if not installed, install Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 SP1 Redistributable Package
32bit: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=8328
64bit: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=13523
6. Download the dependent python packages using
pip install -r requirements.txt
7. Download and extract UPX binary to [source-path]\monkey\infection_monkey\bin\upx.exe:
https://github.com/upx/upx/releases/download/v3.94/upx394w.zip
8. Build/Download Sambacry and Mimikatz binaries
a. Build/Download according to sections at the end of this readme.
b. Place the binaries under [code location]\infection_monkey\bin
9. To build the final exe:
cd [code location]/infection_monkey
build_windows.bat
output is placed under dist\monkey.exe
--- Linux ---
Tested on Ubuntu 16.04 and 17.04.
1. Install dependencies by running:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install python-pip python-dev libffi-dev upx libssl-dev libc++1
Install the python packages listed in requirements.txt using pip
cd [code location]/infection_monkey
pip install -r requirements.txt
2. Build Sambacry binaries
a. Build/Download according to sections at the end of this readme.
b. Place the binaries under [code location]\infection_monkey\bin
3. To build, run in terminal:
cd [code location]/infection_monkey
chmod +x build_linux.sh
./build_linux.sh
output is placed under dist/monkey
-- Sambacry --
Sambacry requires two standalone binaries to execute remotely.
1. Install gcc-multilib if it's not installed
sudo apt-get install gcc-multilib
2. Build the binaries
cd [code location]/infection_monkey/monkey_utils/sambacry_monkey_runner
./build.sh
-- Mimikatz --
Mimikatz is required for the Monkey to be able to steal credentials on Windows. It's possible to either compile from sources (requires Visual Studio 2013 and up) or download the binaries from
https://github.com/guardicore/mimikatz/releases/tag/1.0.0
Download both 32 and 64 bit DLLs and place them under [code location]\infection_monkey\bin
