How Reaper Works

Main Features

• Network Manager – Scan, monitor, and manipulate network connections in real time.
• Windows Manager – Windows commands, do stuff your IT blocks
• Command Line Access – Built-in terminal with extended admin privileges.
• Windows Bypass Tools – Remove certain system-level restrictions without restarting.

Stress Test Explanation

This section explains the NetworkTerminal stress/load Command concept used by the Baseline / Spike / Soak / Stress modes. The goal of a load test is to measure how a web service behaves under different traffic patterns so you can find bottlenecks and improve stability.

What the test measures

• Latency — how long the site takes to respond (ms).
• Success rate — percentage of successful (2xx–3xx) responses vs errors.
• Throughput — requests per second the server can handle.
• Stability over time — whether the server slows down or degrades under sustained load.

Modes — simple explanations

• Baseline — steady, controlled traffic. Used to measure normal behavior and establish a baseline latency and success rate.
• Spike — sudden burst of traffic early in the test. Used to see how the site behaves under quick surges (e.g., a viral moment).
• Soak — lower-to-moderate traffic sustained for a long period. Used to detect memory leaks, resource exhaustion, or gradual performance degradation.
• Stress — push to high or maximum concurrency to identify the system's breaking point and failure modes.

How it works (conceptual)

At a high level the test:

1. Chooses a traffic pattern based on the selected mode.
2. Starts multiple simultaneous requests (concurrency) to the target URL according to that pattern.
3. Measures response time and response code for each request and records results to a log or CSV file.
4. Monitors error rate; if too many failures occur, the test can stop early to avoid unnecessary load.

Example (non-actionable, conceptual code)

This is illustrative pseudocode showing the idea — it is not runnable load-test code and avoids implementation details.

// PSEUDO-CODE (concept only)
mode = "spike"                // baseline | spike | soak | stress
durationSeconds = 60
maxConcurrency = 200

pattern = ChoosePattern(mode, maxConcurrency, durationSeconds)

// For each  attempt we:
sendRequest(targetUrl)        // perform a single HTTP request (measure latency and status)
record(timestamp, latencyMs, statusCode)

// in the end: analyze records to compute average latency error rate and throughput

Example of recorded CSV line

1697040000000,124,200
// timestamp_ms, latency_ms, http_status_code

Legal & safe use

Important: Running load or stress tests against servers you do not own or do not have explicit permission to test is unethical and may be illegal. Always:

• Obtain written permission from the site owner or hosting provider before testing.
• Run tests in a controlled environment or on staging systems whenever possible.
• Set limits and error thresholds so tests stop automatically if the target starts failing.

Security & Usage

Reaper should be used responsibly. While it offers advanced control, misuse can violate workplace, school, or government IT policies.

Admin Usage on Locked Devices

Reaper can gain elevated privileges on certain unpatched Windows systems by using a known security flaw identified as CVE-2024-7479. This vulnerability affects the way a popular remote desktop service handles local communications and driver loading.

In short, the method involves interacting with a legitimate service running on the system, performing a secure handshake to prove access, and then loading a trusted (but vulnerable) driver to execute commands with full SYSTEM privileges. Reaper uses this only to elevate your permissions locally — it does not connect to any remote servers, install hidden software, or exfiltrate your data.

This process will only work if your IT department has not pushed the Windows or application update that fixes CVE-2024-7479. If the patch has been installed, the privilege escalation will no longer function.

Once successful, Reaper can run administrative commands, change restricted settings, and unlock features normally blocked on locked-down devices — but it will never install backdoors, remote access tools, or hidden monitoring software. All actions happen locally and only while the program is running.

Important: Use this only on systems you own or have permission to manage. Unauthorized use may violate laws or organizational policies.
