Shell becomes unresponsive when running almost any command....

Open WodanAsason opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

Every module I attempt to run hangs and needs to be ctrl-c'd

(linux.enumerate.user) pwncat$ run
[02:53:41] error: module failed: /etc/passwd

When testing cat /etc/passwd using nc, it had no issues reading it

Basic shell commands are unknown

(linux.enumerate.user) pwncat$ ls
[02:55:29] error: ls: unknown command

I have tried installing multiple different ways, both venv and non. No change.

Version

pwncat-cs --version
0.5.4

Target System (aka "victim")

HTB Bank

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Catch a shell using pwncat-cs

I will look into the module issues, but regarding the "basic shell commands" part, you need to switch to the remote prompt. You are trying to enter shell commands into pwncat's "local" prompt (see Basic Usage in the documentation).
