myRoot (v1.01)
myRoot (at this point) is a simple linux 2.6 kernel rootkit facilitating the VFS technique to hide and listen for a password protected shell on a TCP/UDP port. Alternatively, it can be configured to wait for an ICMP_ECHO packet with a configurable size, and then listen on the specified protocol on the specified port. myRoot is also able to log connection attempts, wrong passwords (with the password), and received commands with the time and date.
