Reverse shell cheatsheet
A reverse shell is a technique used to gain remote command-line access to a computer, typically as part of a cyberattack. Unlike a traditional remote shell (or “bind shell”), where an attacker connects directly to a target system that is listening for incoming connections, a reverse shell works by having the victim’s machine initiate an outbound connection to the attacker’s computer. This reversal of roles is what gives the technique its name.
