Dear guys:

I am try to incorporate an virtual machine to the backdoor for
cross-platform ability.I choose between perl and python. But I get problem
to get a pure or core virtual machine.

As you known, perl is all-in-one with compiler and interpreter, maybe python
is easy for my bookdoor, would you tell me where is some pure python
interpreter which implement what is done by pythonrun.c in python package?
So that the interpreter will be smaller and run *.pyc which feeded into
backdoor.

Any advice for pure perl virtual machine(interpreter)? After all, exploits
written in perl are now much more than those in python.

Best regards

Darjoan Dave
