About the project

An educational reconstruction of the Stuxnet worm's source code in C, derived from decompiled 2010 binaries. Intended for studying APT attack logic against ICS and developing defensive tools.

Useful for
  • Study Stuxnet architecture by modules: dropper, rootkit, S7 hooks
  • Develop YARA rules and Snort signatures to detect its components
  • Analyze behavior of mrxcls.sys and mrxnet.sys drivers in an isolated VM

1.4 Cooling Magnitude out of 10 — how fast interest is growing, not a quality score.

Star growth looks organic. Data as of September 24, 2026, 21:58 UTC.

The star-growth assessment does not verify whether the project is safe to run.

Stars per day

Bars show stars per UTC day; the line is a moving average of available history. Gaps mean missing data, not zero growth. Today's bar is incomplete. Red marks spike days.

Why it’s trending

  • 4 stars so far today, about 4 expected by the end of the day.
  • The repository is 18 days old and already has 560 stars.
  • Hacker News: “Show HN: Stuxnet – A reconstructed source code of the infamous cyber-weapon” — 178 points, 16 days ago.
  • Recent forks include notable developers: @fengjixuchui (936 followers).

Star trust

Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.

These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
