<title>PreventDefault Example</title>
</head>
<body>
<a href="https://google.com" >Go to Google</a>
</body>
</html>Description: Threat actors have been observed using this technique to trick victims into clicking spoofed in-page malware download links. Using the PreventDefault JavaScript method you can spoof the hover link to display a legit link google.com, but once clicked the victim will be redirected to your malicious link bing.com. Great for getting victims to download payloads via a controlled site.

Reconnaissance ====================
🔙spiderfoot
SpiderFoot is an open source intelligence (OSINT) automation tool. It integrates with just about every data source available and utilises a range of methods for data analysis, making that data easy to navigate.
SpiderFoot can be used offensively (e.g. in a red team exercise or penetration test) for reconnaissance of your target or defensively to gather information about what you or your organisation might have exposed over the Internet.
Install:
wget https://github.com/smicallef/spiderfoot/archive/v4.0.tar.gz
tar zxvf v4.0.tar.gz
cd spiderfoot-4.0
pip3 install -r requirements.txtFor full installation instructions see here.

Install:
git clone https://github.com/six2dez/reconftw.git;cd reconftw/;./install.shFor full installation instructions see here.
Usage:
# Single target domain
./reconftw.sh -d target.com -r

🔙Shellter
Shellter is a dynamic shellcode injection tool, and the first truly dynamic PE infector ever created.
It can be used in order to inject shellcode into native Windows applications (currently 32-bit applications only).
Shellter takes advantage of the original structure of the PE file and doesn’t apply any modification such as changing memory access permissions in sections (unless the user wants), adding an extra section with RWE access, and whatever would look dodgy under an AV scan.
Full README information can be found here.
Install: (Kali)
apt-get update
apt-get install shellterInstall: (Windows)
Visit the download page and install.
Usage:
Just pick a legit binary to backdoor and run Shellter.
Some nice tips can be found here.
Lots of community usage demos can be found here.

Install:
git clone https://github.com/optiv/Freeze
cd Freeze
go build Freeze.goUsage:
-I string
Path to the raw 64-bit shellcode.
-O string
Name of output file (e.g. loader.exe or loader.dll). Depending on what file extension defined will determine if Freeze makes a dll or exe.
-console
Only for Binary Payloads - Generates verbose console information when the payload is executed. This will disable the hidden window feature.
-encrypt
Encrypts the shellcode using AES 256 encryption
-export string
For DLL Loaders Only - Specify a specific Export function for a loader to have.
-process string
The name of process to spawn. This process has to exist in C:\Windows\System32\. Example 'notepad.exe' (default "notepad.exe")
-sandbox
Enables sandbox evasion by checking:
Is Endpoint joined to a domain?
Does the Endpoint have more than 2 CPUs?
Does the Endpoint have more than 4 gigs of RAM?
-sha256
Provides the SHA256 value of the loaders (This is useful for tracking)

This script will create a Microsoft Word Document with a remote image, allowing for the capture of NTML hashes from a remote victim endpoint.
Microsoft Word has the ability to include images from remote locations, including a remote image hosted on an attacker controlled SMB server. This gives you the opportunity to listen for, and capture, NTLM hashes that are sent when an authenticated victim opens the Word document and renders the image.
