Reconstructed Stuxnet source code published for defensive research and academic study
A reconstructed source code of the Stuxnet worm, derived from decompiled binaries, has been published for educational and defensive research.
This reconstruction makes Stuxnet's logic and attack vectors accessible for study, which is valuable for engineers building detection signatures and hardening industrial control systems. However, the code is not deployable and is intended only for controlled analysis environments.

The repository targets Siemens Step 7 and S7-300/400 PLCs, manipulating frequency converter drives to damage centrifuge rotors.
It includes modules for privilege escalation, S7 hooking, rootkit functionality, and the payload that alters motor frequencies.
The code is intended for static analysis in a virtual environment, not for live deployment on critical infrastructure.
