Add an option to drop an interactive shell.

[whmacmac]

I was thinking that having the following features, will be great:

1. An option to drop an interactive shell.
2. An option to make use of the metasploit's meterpreter: in this case we will can use directly from empire all metasploit/meterpreter features instead of having a separate session/terminal for metasploit.

@Sa1riil what do you mean drop an interactive shell? You already have access to any shell commands by using shell <command> when interacting with an agent.

Hello Hubll3, Shell commands works fine but there are times when you want to execute an entire script file through copy pasting it in the terminal. I observed the shell command can execute only basic commands instead of complex scripts. There are also times when I am using both single and double quote, which will break my script if I try to use it through the empire's "shell" option. In case it makes sense, it will be great.

@Sa1riil that's what Empire's modules are for. They are simply loading large scripts into memory. There are template files provided that describe how to do this.

Invoke-Mimikatz for example is just a very large .ps1 stored in ./Empire/data/module_source/credentials

Does that achieve what you are looking for or am I misunderstanding?

Yes this was what i mean, then there is no need to have an interactive shell. About an option to interconnect empire to all modules from metasploit through a meterpreter session, does it is possible without needing a separate session of meterpreter in other terminal?

@Sa1riil You can run entire scripts in Empire by doing the following:

scriptimport ~/Invoke-Whatever.ps1 to load a Powershell script into your agent. scriptcmd Invoke-Whatever -Flag to run Powershell functions previously imported.

It would be cool to have an option to drop into a shell like meterpreter, but Empire can run shell commands already, and has methods of running larger scripts if you need to.

Thank you for clarifying it to me. So i think having two shells: one for meterpreter, other for empire can resolve all i said. If you consider it is to much to work for it, you can close it. I will try to think at a method to made them interoperable and in case it works, i will forward it to you to add at the main branch if you consider it is good.
