Today we released WhisperHijack, a stealthy process injection PoC that uses thread descriptions to inject payloads into remote processes, then patches a waiting thread's return address for execution. Every memory op happens in-target via Queue APCs, with zero NtWriteVirtualMemory or NtSetContextThread calls. Based on @hasherezade TNC + WTH research. github.com/Maldev-Academy/Wh…

People seem to think this post was about exploit development. It wasn’t. You don’t need to discover a new software vulnerability to compromise 90% of organizations.
Important quote ... plan to use it in your slide decks in the coming months "The ease with which open-weight AI models can be combined and spread into countless attack tools has transformed cyberattacks, which once required advanced skills, into an era where anyone can easily carry them out."

It has been a quieter month than usual for iPurple blogging, as I have been working on content for a number of upcoming projects and activities. A new article will be published early next week. In the meantime, have a look at my latest post on leveraging WerEnc.dll to encrypt your implant. Why use it? ✅ Smaller stagers by reusing encryption code already built into Windows ✅ AES-256 encryption support ✅ Trusted, signed Microsoft DLL Living-off-the-land encryption has its advantages. ipurple.team/2026/09/21/dump…

Can LNK files ever be trusted? ⚡ My latest blog post demonstrates several new LNK abuse methods, allowing you to fully spoof the target shown in Explorer. It also introduces tools to create your own LNKs, and detected spoofed ones yourself. 🐬 wietzebeukema.nl/blog/trust-…

Finally, HTTPS integration: previously, the HTTP traffic used simple encryption and encoding to hide the data, but now support for HTTPS makes it look more legit. #redteam

Sometimes, the absence of signature match is also interesting. Here the #Chrysalis sideloaded dll, where we can quickly spot the few interesting functions. Make sure to check "Show UNK" !

A short weekend read for anyone interested in the ANIMO (Azure Network Intel & Mission Ops) tool I've been working on throughout 2025. It documents a red team scenario with its capabilities and future development plans. If you'd like to send suggestions, phishing links or donations my DMs are open. #redteam dmcxblue.net/2026/01/04/anim…
