[QUESTION] - netcat used in PEASS
D3vil0p3r opened this issue · comments
Hey @carlospolop
I have a simple question related to the usage of netcat in PEASS project. In Linux environment there are two main netcat packages:
- gnu-netcat
- openbsd-netcat
The main differences between them can be easily read here: https://www.quora.com/What-is-the-difference-between-the-openBSD-netcat-and-the-GNU-netcat (in the verbosity section should be an error because GNU version does not show the "listening IP" string, it works only with OpenBSD version).
So, since I'm using only openbsd-netcat, PEASS (or better LinPEAS) can use openbsd-netcat well or it works only with gnu-netcat?
Thank you in advance
Hey @D3vil0p3r,
Being honest, you could have tried that or checked the code instead of opening an issue.
Anyway, here you have the code related to the use of netcat:
I can see one nc being called nc.openbsd
so I suppose it's supported (I haven't touch that part in a long time). But check it and reopen the issue if it doesn't please!
Thanks man!
