Bronze IIPowerShell Deobfuscation: Ep.8 - Stuck Halfway
Try
Set-PSDebug -Trace 1
and put
Write-Output to the beginning of the script and then running it in a console.
you should then get a lot of CHAR output.
Put that in CyberChef and decode from there.
The labs change every time though as they use invoke obfuscation during vm spinup
Silver IIII used python for this, most likely you can use a PowerShell program, too.
Bronze IIHi netcat​, how do we move forward with python/powershell for this?
- netcat
Well, start with "${ }". You know what this is, isn't it? And "+=", "${}", etc.?
If not, read the PowerShell specification, or play with in PowerShell to get an understanding what happens.All in all, very ugly, but not impossible to decode.
I can't (well I could) post my decoder here, so can't really give details on how I did it.
