Open Source PowerShell Security Software for Windows

This repo is a public collection of malware samples and related dissection/analysis information, maintained by InQuest. It gathers various kinds of malicious artifacts, executables, scripts, macros, obfuscated documents, etc., with metadata (e.g., VirusTotal reports), file carriers, and sample hashes. It’s intended for malware analysts/researchers to help study how malware works, how they are delivered, and how it evolves.

SpotX is a community-built Spotify desktop client patcher that blocks audio, video, and banner ads and unlocks premium-like features—such as unlimited skips and custom themes—on Windows, macOS, and Linux. It injects tweaks client-side to redefine the Spotify experience.

FLARE VM is a security-focused Windows workstation distribution designed for malware analysis, reverse engineering, penetration testing, and threat hunting. It bundles a curated set of tools—disassemblers, debuggers, decompilers, virtualization, forensics utilities, packet capture tools, exploit frameworks, and hex editors—preconfigured to work together. The environment configures paths, dependencies, environment variables, and common tool integrations so analysts can focus on tasks rather than setup. Updates and modular installation let users include only the tools that match their workflow, keeping the VM lean and current. Because security toolchains often clash (DLL versions, signing, privileges), FLARE VM’s packaging handles compatibility issues ahead of time. For investigations involving malware unpacking, sandboxing, static analysis, or code reversing on Windows, the platform dramatically accelerates readiness and consistency across analysts.

The repository is a public GitHub collection of BadUSB payloads prepared to run from a Flipper Zero device; it’s presented as a plug-and-play library that bundles payload scripts, a README, and supporting files so users can pick and use payloads without heavy setup. The project is heavily PowerShell-oriented and organized into a payloads folder with documentation (README, FAQs) and helper scripts, and the author says they formatted the collection to be easy for others to use. The maintainer also set up short-URL infrastructure to simplify embedding webhooks or tokens into compact one-liners for payload configuration, and the repo includes social/contact links and acknowledgments to related projects. The repository is actively used by a community (many stars, forks and hundreds of commits), and the author explicitly warns about responsible use and includes guidance in the docs.

This project explores USB device emulation attacks—commonly called BadUSB—by demonstrating how commodity USB hardware can impersonate keyboards, network adapters, or storage devices to perform scripted actions on a host. It typically contains firmware examples, payloads, and explanations showing how a device presenting as a Human Interface Device (HID) can inject keystrokes, open shells, or orchestrate data exfiltration when plugged into a machine. The codebase is frequently intended for security research and defensive testing: defenders and red teams use it to validate endpoint controls, USB whitelisting, and user training. Due to the dual-use nature of such techniques, responsible repositories emphasize lab-only experiments, consent-based testing, and mitigations like disabling autorun, enforcing device policies, and using endpoint detection.
