Using the PwnPlug with AWS

While the manual for the pwnplug talks about performing reverse shell operations back to a BackTrack 5 instance on the Internet I thought it would be more useful to have in connect back to a AWS instance. In a nutshell this is what I did. (NOTE: Further edits will add details)

Assumptions: Your familiar with configuring pwn plug reverse shell instances. You have a Amazon Web Services account. You've used dyndns.com (or similar) services

• Setup a new host in dyndns. Something handy to remember say plugbase.dyndns.com. NOTE: the pwnplug will perform a dns lookup which is observable to a sniffer, so maybe calling it something discreet might be better.
• Setup a Amazon EC2 instance of your favourite Linux (YMWV), I used ubuntu server and micro instance.
• Login to said instance and install DDNS to work with your newly created dyndns host address.
• Your going to need to install x,y & z
• Use this modifyed script
• Configure pwnplug

Pwn from your phone!
