Module: Msf::Handler::ReverseTcp

Includes:
Msf::Handler, Reverse, Msf::Handler::Reverse::Comm
Included in:
ReverseTcpAllPorts, ReverseTcpSsl
Defined in:
lib/msf/core/handler/reverse_tcp.rb

Overview

This module implements the reverse TCP handler. This means that it listens on a port waiting for a connection until either one is established or it is told to abort.

This handler depends on having a local host and port to listen on.
