Quick Setup Vulnerable Web Application Lab

There are a lot of things to learn about Web application hacking and Penetration Testing. You can learn these things only by practicing those learnings in a private virtual environment. You can set up that virtual environment very quickly by following this article. Here we are going to build an isolated lab within your laptop or desktop with no extra hardware required. 

One-Liners Payload Delievery with Kali & Parrot-Sec OS's

Previously we discussed some of the ways through which we can transfer an advanced payload like meterpreter to the victim's machine during penetration testing and red teaming. Today we will see how quickly we can transfer these advanced payloads using some one-liners.

Tools used:

Kali OS

Python 2.7 | 3.7

PHP

Netcat

Create Netcat Reverse Shell and Bind Shell.

This article explains how the two types of connections, Reverse connection and Bind connection are made to get a shell on the box with Netcat utility. Ncat or Netcat is a feature-packed networking utility which reads and writes raw data across networks from the command line. A utility like Netcat helps us to get a reverse shell in multiple situations like getting shell while RCE in web applications, during post-exploitation, and many more.
The bind connection is that when you have to connect to the remote IP address and port number, which is, most of the time does not work due to the presence of a firewall at another end, which is blocking all incoming connections unless the port is in the exception list.
