PhpSploit is a full-featured command-and-control (C2) framework that persists on a webserver via a stealthy single-line PHP backdoor. It is a Python-based post-exploitation tool used in red team operations and penetration testing.

Use cases

  • maintain persistent access to a compromised webserver
  • run a C2 framework over a PHP webshell
  • perform post-exploitation on a web application during a pentest
  • set up stealth backdoor persistence on a PHP server
  • red team command and control over HTTP
  • escalate privileges on a compromised web host

When to choose

  • you need a stealthy PHP-based webshell with C2 capabilities for authorized red team engagements
  • you want a mature, Kali-packaged post-exploitation framework for webserver persistence

When to avoid

  • you need a general-purpose web vulnerability scanner rather than a post-exploitation C2 tool
  • your target stack is not PHP-based
  • you lack explicit authorization to test the target system
