The Adaptix Framework team has announced a significant update to AdaptixC2, an open-source post-exploitation and adversarial emulation platform designed for penetration testers.

The latest version introduces significant improvements to network tunneling, the user interface, and overall system performance. One of the most notable upgrades focuses on network tunnel capabilities.

The SOCKS4 and SOCKS5 protocols have been completely reworked on both client and server sides, delivering substantial improvements in stability, performance, and speed.

The tunnels are now RFC-compliant, enabling port scanning through tunnels. Additionally, SOCKS5 tunnels now support IPv6 connectivity on both client and TeamServer components.

The platform’s session graph has undergone a complete redesign, with new icons and support for a Top-to-Bottom layout.

Sessions operating tunnels are now clearly marked as TunS (tunnel via TeamServer) or TunC (tunnel via client), while inactive and terminated sessions no longer clutter the display.

Area	Key Highlights
Network Tunneling	Reworked SOCKS4/5 tunnels with improved stability, speed, RFC compliance, and IPv6 support
Session Management	Redesigned session graph, tunnel labeling (TunS/TunC), clutter-free inactive sessions
Remote Access	New Non-PTY Remote Shell and SSH-like Remote Terminal with multiple terminals
User Interface	Improved dialogs, auto-saving profiles, project-based workflow, dark & light themes
Performance	Enhanced the Listener, Sessions, and Credentials managers with advanced search
Management Tools	New BOF modules, including LDAP, DCSync, and nbtscan
Extensibility	New BOF modules including LDAP, DCSync, and nbtscan

Users can quickly access session consoles by middle-clicking. AdaptixC2 now features a Remote Shell with interactive, non-PTY capabilities, complementing the enhanced Remote Terminal, which operates in SSH-like mode.

Multiple terminals can be created within a single Remote Terminal tab, improving workflow efficiency.

The user experience has been significantly enhanced through improvements to the dialog window and a new profile system with automatic background saving.

The authorization form now requires users to specify a project directory, streamlining file system operations. Two new themes, Adaptix Dark and Adaptix Light, provide visual customization options.

Performance optimizations include asynchronous client-server interactions and asynchronous AxScript execution when UI elements are not in use.

Text batching prevents UI freezes by flushing data every 100 milliseconds or 64 kilobytes, with a database size management limit of 10 megabytes.

According to the Adaptix Framework team, additional improvements include an enhanced Listener Manager and updated Sessions table features with creation timestamps.

Improved Credentials Manager with template support for tools like impacket and netexec, and advanced search functionality across all tables supporting conditional operators.

The Extension-Kit has been expanded with new BOF modules, including LDAP-BOF, DCSync-BOF, and nbtscan, further extending the platform’s capabilities for security professionals.
