If you discover a security vulnerability in the Phoenix-Evasion-Research Framework, please report it responsibly to:

Email: Redmoonsontee@gmail.com

Please do NOT open a public GitHub issue for security vulnerabilities.

• Bugs in framework code
• Cryptography implementation flaws
• Memory safety issues
• Cross-platform compatibility issues affecting security
• Dependency vulnerabilities

• Educational/demo limitations (documented in code)
• Legal/ethical questions about tool usage
• Feature requests
• Documentation improvements
• Performance issues

1. Initial Report: Send detailed technical report
2. Acknowledgment: We'll acknowledge receipt within 48 hours
3. Assessment: We'll evaluate and reproduce the issue (7 days)
4. Fix Development: We'll develop and test the fix (14 days)
5. Notification: We'll notify you before public disclosure
6. Public Disclosure: We'll release fix and credit the researcher (30 days max)

1. Use Latest Version: Always use the latest version from the official GitHub repository
2. Verify Dependencies: Regularly update dependencies with pip install -r requirements.txt --upgrade
3. Isolated Environment: Run in a Python virtual environment (venv)
4. Limited Scope: Use only for authorized security research and education
5. Network Security: Run on secure, segregated networks for sensitive testing

1. Code Review: All pull requests undergo security review
2. Type Hints: Use type hints to catch potential bugs
3. Error Handling: Implement proper error handling without exposing sensitive info
4. No Hardcoded Secrets: Never commit secrets, keys, or credentials
5. Test Coverage: Add tests for security-critical code

1. Demo Environment: This is primarily an educational tool. Some features are simplified
2. Master Key: The obfuscation master key is regenerated per instance (not persistent)
3. Windows-Specific Features: Some features only work on Windows systems
4. No Real C2: This is not a real command-and-control framework
5. No Payload Execution: The framework does not execute malicious payloads

• Monitor for suspicious cryptographic operations
• Implement behavioral analysis for sandbox detection bypass
• Study syscall patterns for EDR evasion detection
• Enhance debugger detection capabilities
• Monitor process creation and memory allocation patterns

Monitor for:

• ChaCha20-Poly1305 cipher usage (without legitimate purpose)
• Repeated hardware/VM detection checks
• Direct syscall resolution from ntdll.dll
• Debugger API calls (IsDebuggerPresent)
• Unusual nonce generation patterns

For security questions or concerns:

• Check existing GitHub Issues/Discussions
• Review the documentation in docs/SECURITY.md
• Contact via email (security-sensitive inquiries only)
