Stardust is a modern 32/64-bit position independent shellcode (implant) template written in C++20. It provides compile-time FNV-1a hashing for module and API resolution, raw string support, and a modular instance-based design for building PIC payloads.

Use cases

  • build position independent shellcode implants
  • resolve modules and APIs at runtime via PEB walking
  • write shellcode with raw strings and global variables
  • develop red team implant templates
  • compile-time hash strings to avoid import tables
  • create 32-bit and 64-bit PIC payloads

When to choose

  • you need a modern, maintainable position independent implant template
  • you want compile-time string hashing and raw string support in shellcode
  • you are building offensive security tooling or red team implants
  • you want to avoid reflective DLL loader patterns

When to avoid

  • you need a general-purpose application framework
  • your project requires a permissive or OSI-approved license (the repo has none)
  • you are not doing low-level Windows offensive or security research
  • you need production defensive tooling rather than offensive templates
