This is a file of base64 patterns that represent strings that would be present if any of the functions in php7 were encoded to base64. I'll probably add structure later by grouping them with their plain text translation. This file is useful to swap out with patterns_raw.txt to gain additional insights into other strings to search for in base64.
PHP malware scanner
Traversing directories for files with php extensions and testing files against text or regexp rules, the rules based on self gathered samples and publicly vailable malwares/webshells. The goal is to find infected files and fight against kiddies, because to easy to bypass rules.
How to use?
$ php ./scan.php -h
Usage scan.php -d <directory> [-i=<directory|file>] [-e=.php] [--hide-ok] [--hide-whitelist]
-d Directory for searching
-e=.php Extension
-i=<directory|file> Directory of file to igonre
--hide-ok Hide OK aka not infected messages
--hide-whitelist Hide whitelisted messages
--extra-check Adds GoogleBot and htaccess to Scan List
--follow-symlink Follow symlinked directories
Ignore argument could be used multiple times and accept glob style matching ex.: "cache*", "??-cache.php" or "/cache" etc.
Patterns
There are two different pattern source, each line in these files is a patter so patterns_raw.txt lines searched as-is, patterns_re.txt used with preg_match function.
Whitelisting
See whitelist.txt file for a predefined MD5 hash list. Only the first 32 characters are used, rest of the line ignored so feel free to leave a comment.
