Python RAT for Mac? Anyone used py2app (OSX) - The Watcher - Aug 5, 2024

I'm thinking about starting with Chat GPT to code malware basically, or let's say a RAT, for mac.

I want to extract all passwords from browsers, create a proxy, and other stuff.

Would I be able to make it with python and use py2app? Or would I be able to make a encoded/hidden 1 liner command that downloads the script/requirements for it to run, even python itself? And do it silently?

Let me know!

Don't neglect places like Github too. For example, EvilOSX is an open-source Python-based Rat for MAC. Its not longer being updated, but it may help serve as a benchmark for learning the key functions you'll need; tcp listener, keep-alive pulse, broadcasting routines, data encryption over a socket, etc.

The last time I checked, MacOS comes preinstalled with a watered-down version of Python. You could probably stage a script that downloads any newer version of Python plus and modules required for execution, then download/exec the actual payload itself. As far as py2app, I haven't ever used before, but it seems like a valid option as well.

Yes you can do this. I recommend becoming fluent in Python or at least 1 other lang before you attempt it
