Our mission is to empower organizations of all sizes with the knowledge and tools to understand and address driver-related security risks, making their systems safer and more reliable.
- An extensive and well-organized collection of vulnerable and malicious Windows drivers
- Continuously updated with the latest information on driver vulnerabilities and threats
- Easy-to-navigate categories and indices for quick access to relevant information
- Seamless integration with Sigma for proactive defense using hash prevention
- Enhance visibility into vulnerable drivers within your infrastructure, fostering a stronger security posture
- Stay ahead of the curve by being informed about the latest driver-related threats and vulnerabilities
- Swiftly identify and address risks associated with driver vulnerabilities, minimizing potential damages
- Leverage compatibility with Sigma to proactively block known malicious drivers by hash
To begin your journey with LOLDrivers, simply check out the LOLDrivers.io site or clone the repository and explore the wealth of information available in the categorized directories. We've designed the site to help you easily find the insights you need to protect your systems from vulnerable drivers.

LOLDrivers provides comprehensive Sigma, Yara, ClamAV and Sysmon detection rules to help you effectively detect potential threats. To explore these rules in detail, navigate to the sigma, yara, av and sysmon directories under the detection folder. Also there is WDAC policy thanks to Florian Stosse and HotCakeX.
Happy hunting! 🕵️♂️
The community has also created a PowerShell LOLDriver scanner courtesy of @Oddvarmoe, @M_haggis, and IISResetMe, that can help you identify potentially malicious drivers. The script, available here, allows you to scan a specified Windows folder for any suspicious files. We recommend running the script on directories such as:
C:\WINDOWS\inf
C:\WINDOWS\System32\drivers
C:\WINDOWS\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository
The primary website uses Astro in website/. See that guide for Node 24 / Python 3.11 setup, public API generation, local previews, and browser checks. Hugo and Go are no longer required to build or deploy the website.
The Deploy Site workflow validates production artifacts on pull requests and publishes the tested Astro artifact to GitHub Pages after a push to main. The separate preview workflow keeps analytics disabled. Tagged releases package driver downloads without deploying a website.
See the production migration and rollback guide for the URL contract and remaining maintenance work.
