* Package name : penelope Version : 0.21.0 Upstream Contact: brightio <[email protected]> * URL : https://github.com/brightio/penelope * License : GPL-3+ Programming Lang: Python Description : advanced shell handler for penetration testing and CTFs Penelope is a modern shell handler designed for penetration testers and CTF players. It provides a highly capable alternative to basic netcat listeners, streamlining reverse and bind shell management during post-exploitation. . It operates entirely using the Python standard library, requiring no external dependencies. . Key features include: * Automatic PTY upgrades for fully interactive terminal sessions. * Multi-session management to control multiple targets simultaneously. * Native session logging and interaction tracking. * Seamless file transfer capabilities between host and target. * Helper modules for local privilege escalation and enumeration. This package is useful on penetration tests and CTFs ("Capture-The-Flag" competitions). It replaces netcat for bind and reverse shell establishment and management, while providing many quality-of-life improvements. I plan to maintain this package inside the pkg-security team.
