A Python-based reverse shell implementation that facilitates remote command execution and file transfer between a client and a server. This demonstrates the principles of network communication and remote administration.
-
Remote Command Execution: Execute shell commands on the client machine from the server.
-
Directory Navigation: Change directories on the client system.
-
File Operations:
- Download: Retrieve files from the client.
- Upload: Send files to the client.
- Delete: Remove files or directories on the client.
-
Cross-Platform Compatibility: Designed to work on multiple operating systems with minimal modifications.

client.py: Script to be executed on the target machine, establishing a connection to the server.server.py: Script to be run on the attacker's machine, listening for incoming connections from clients.
- Python 3.x installed on both client and server machines.
- Network connectivity between client and server.
-
Navigate to the Server Directory:
cd Reverse-Shell/Server -
Run the Server Script:
python server.py
The server will start listening on the specified IP and port (default:
192.168.0.3:9999). Ensure this IP is reachable by the client.
-
Navigate to the Client Directory:
cd Reverse-Shell/Client -
Configure Server IP and Port:
In
client.py, set the server IP and port:self.IP = "192.168.0.3" self.PORT = 9999
-
Run the Client Script:
python client.py
Upon execution, the client will attempt to connect to the server. Once connected, the server can send commands to the client.
ls: List directory contents (translated todiron Windows).cd <path>: Change directory to<path>.cwd: Display the current working directory.del <filename|dirname>: Delete the specified file or directory.get <filename>: Download a file from the client to the server.send <filename>: Upload a file from the server to the client.
