Evilgrade is a modular framework that allows the user to take advantage of poor upgrade implementations by injecting fake updates. It comes with pre-made binaries (agents), a working default configuration for fast pentests, and has it’s own WebServer and DNSServer modules. Easy to set up new settings, and has an autoconfiguration when new binary agents are set.

Only use this tool against systems you own or are explicitly authorized to test — see the disclaimer.

Getting started

Install on Kali Linux with `sudo apt install isr-evilgrade`. See the official Kali tool page and upstream homepage linked above for full usage and configuration details.
