**Fluxo de código:**

1. Criar um novo Pipe
2. Criar e iniciar um serviço que se conectará ao pipe criado e escreverá algo. O código do serviço executará este código PS codificado: `$pipe = new-object System.IO.Pipes.NamedPipeClientStream("piper"); $pipe.Connect(); $sw = new-object System.IO.StreamWriter($pipe); $sw.WriteLine("Go"); $sw.Dispose();`
3. O serviço recebe os dados do cliente no pipe, chama ImpersonateNamedPipeClient e espera que o serviço termine
4. Finalmente, usa o token obtido do serviço para gerar um novo _cmd.exe_
