We have provided the following details for these parameters. In the next step, Shellcode generator asks for local port (LPORT), local host IP (LHOST), remote directory location where shellcode agent shall reside, and payload name. We are using windows/meterpreter/reverse_tcp in the current example. Bat extension.Īfter selecting the extension, a window pops-up with available payloads.

Let’s select Windows shellcode ( Agent 20) of PSH-CMD (PowerShell) format. Each agent shows shellcode target systems, format, extension, and execution method. To demonstrate Venom’s working, let’s select the Windows Payloads category (sequence # 2) from the options. We can choose any category by feeding its sequence number in the command prompt. Currently, there are 7 Payload (shellcodes generation) categories as shown in the following screenshot. The above command opens the main menu of the framework, showing different payload categories. cd auxĪfter installing all the dependencies, navigate back to the main directory and execute venom.sh file to run the framework. All these dependencies are automatically installed by running the setup file (setup.sh) from aux folder. Venom has many dependencies, such as compilers, emulators, crypters, webserver, obfuscators, and MiTM+DNS Spoofing packages. Navigate to the framework’s directory and change file permission mode for all the shell executable files (.sh format). To install Venom, clone the framework using the following command.

Besides generating shellcodes, Venom can run Metasploit framework to exploit the target networks. We can drop payload either through a fake web link or we can share it as a file through social engineering.

Venom framework provides two payload delivery options. The shellcodes are transformed into executable files with the help of compilers like Pyinstaller, mingw32, and gnu cross compiler (gcc). Venom can generate payloads (shellcodes) in different formats, such as Python, Ruby, C, DLL, MSI (Microsoft Installer), HTA (HTML Application), and PSH.

Msfvenom is a Metasploit utility that combines payloads generation and encoding techniques. Venom is a payload generating framework that uses msfvenom to create shellcodes for different operating systems and environment.
