README

PCAPeek

A proof-of-concept re-assembler for reverse VNC traffic such as IcedID & Qakbot's VNC Backdoors.

Do note that as PoC, PCAPeek offers no guarantees on backwards compatibility and might be modified in the future for additional protocols.

Installation

This utility depends on Npcap for PCAP parsing, which you likely already have installed if you have WireShark.

To download and build this utility using the Go programming language, simply...

go install github.com/0xThiebaut/PCAPeek@latest

Usage

To use PCAPeek, use the --help flag.

PCAPeek --help

PCAPeek is a tool to peek into PCAPs. It doesn't do much besides acting as a proof of concept to reconstruct reverse VNC traffic.
