RCEPatcher

Patches the WoW WOTLK 3.3.5 client to remove the remote code execution exploit. Any server you connect to with an unpatched client can remotely execute code on your computer.

This is a cross-platform Go port of the original C# RCEPatcher that works on Linux, macOS, or Windows.

Usage

RCEPatcher will inform you if Wow.exe is already patched. If not, it creates a backup called Wow.exe.backup and then patches Wow.exe in place.

Either download the executable for your OS and architecture from the release page or build yourself, then run the program. If you download the binary from the releases page, be aware that none of the binaries are codesigned or notarized and you may get security popups on your platform.

# OPTIONAL: build yourself
go build

# Run RCEPatcher
./RCEPatcher /path/to/Wow.exe
