I've been using MSF for sometime now, as well as Kali & Backtrack.
I have yet to come across a " working" payload / backdoor , that doesn't require connecting back to the remote " attacker" after the payload has been open on the client side. ( I may be looking in the wrong places, hence my post )
In other words, I am looking for a payload, once opened it sends notification via email ( or other means ) and the attacker could initiate a connection whenever is convenient , instead of having a listener running and waiting for the payload to finish staging.
So far, for the notification part I have stumbled upon a metasploit module " notify_mail" which can be found https://funoverip.net/2012/10/metasp...-notification/
The closes scenario ive been able to achieve has been using the notify plug in as well as a resource script script that once meterpreter session opens , then migrates to another process and begins meterpreter's persistence service . This does not always works...
I've been looking into empire, and the way empire stages is more of a " fit " but not %100 what I am looking for.
I'm trying to stay away from VLC ..
Any ideas ?
