AceLdr is a position-independent reflective loader (UDRL) for Cobalt Strike written in C, designed to evade memory scanners like Moneta, PE-sieve, and BeaconEye. It employs dynamic heap encryption, code obfuscation, return address spoofing, and sleep-based memory encryption to hide beacon artifacts.

Use cases

  • evade memory scanners when running Cobalt Strike beacons
  • load beacon shellcode with a user-defined reflective loader
  • encrypt beacon memory during sleep to bypass scanning tools
  • bypass BeaconEye, Moneta, PE-sieve, and Hunt-Sleeping-Beacons detections
  • spoof return addresses to defeat stack-based detection
  • implement sleep obfuscation for red team operations

When to choose

  • you need a Cobalt Strike UDRL that defeats modern memory scanners
  • your red team engagement requires evading tools like Moneta or PE-sieve
  • you want heap encryption and return address spoofing out of the box

When to avoid

  • you use loaders that require the shellcode thread to stay alive
  • you need a loader for frameworks other than Cobalt Strike
  • you are not authorized to use offensive security tooling
