Module Overview

List of CVEs: -

Inject a custom native PE file into the exploited process using a reflective PE loader. The reflective PE loader will execute the pre-mapped PE image starting from the address of entry after performing image base relocation and API address resolution. This module requires a PE file that contains relocation data and a valid (uncorrupted) import table. PE files with CLR(C#/.NET executables), bounded imports, and TLS callbacks are not currently supported. Also PE files which use resource loading might crash. . Connect back to the attacker via a named pipe pivot

Module Ranking and Traits

Module Ranking:

  • normal: The exploit is otherwise reliable, but depends on a specific version and can't (or doesn't) reliably autodetect. More information about ranking can be found here.

Basic Usage

msf > use payload/windows/peinject/reverse_named_pipe
msf payload(reverse_named_pipe) > show options
    ... show and set options ...
