[Tutorial] What is a Stub? ~ Working of Stub Explained [Newbies Must See] - The 7th Sage - Apr 22, 2010
Stub and Its Working Explained
- The 7th Sage
Alright guys so am kinda feeling relaxed today so am gonna do something to help you.
Now basically with most keyloggers, binders, crypters you find a Stub.exe
What is this Stub.exe?
- Well a stub is like the brain of the Keylogger. The builder is just the outer body. Like Imagine how you have a body but it won't function without a brain right? Similarly the Keylogger or a Crypter WON'T work without the stub.
Stub.exe so can I use it for my xyz Crypter or xyz Keylogger?
- NO a BIG NO. Stub.exe is just a name given to understand what the exe is. Each of them is restricted to software they are created for.
So can you tell me how a Stub exactly Works?

Now in the above image you can see that the builder takes the info and passes it to the stub. The stub then notes down your required options and creates server.exe
Well its not just that. The server.exe will also possess some characteristics of the stub. Like the properties, the size. So basically stub is like a mother giving birth to a child. 😝 sorry I thought that would be easier to explain :P
In a Keylogger it notes down the key strokes. But its hidden well so you cannot see it. But its recording Keystrokes in the background. Like this one:

Well Why not just make Stub in the Builder? Thats easy for us to use.
- We can't do that. Because options and email password differs from individual to individual. For modifying you will have to modify the code.
- Stub can be added to a builder internally. But once the stub is detected coders have to modify the code again to make it fud. So an external stub is easier to replace.
I iz a newbie. I did not get what you said.
- Don't pm me regarding this. Just post there.
So I hope you liked the tut and understood what a Stub means. Have a Great Day. :)

Now it's clear for me, thanks :)

A good tutorial
I was greatly helped at all with his explanation
It turned out that the stub is very important to make a server
Like a body without a brain
👍

This will help lots of people understand what a stub is, and what a stub does.
Nice work, once again.

Put the stub in resources and then while using drop the file. ;)

Thanks now I'm not worrysome of that stub.exe destroying my computer, its necessary! I do have a few questions though,
Why would you need a stub for a binder or cryptor?
Once the server.exe/logger.exe is made, is that the only file you have to get on victims machines (meaning the stub does not get sent)?
Questions just related to this:
When you encrypt a server.exe before it is sent so that it is UD or FUD, how can it function on the victim's end if it is garbled? Do you have to bind a decrypter or something??
Also, when you bind a server.exe/logger.exe to some innocent file, are the bytes of the two files just appended to eachother (or is there some other weird method)? When clicking on the binded file, does it run both files or do you have to split them again? and if you have to split them do you have to send another file to act as the splitter?
Thanks if anyone can answer my questions, I'm learning.
