    That looks really interesting. Question: let's say I generate a linux payload and put it on my (remote) laptop; will it automatically connect if I start my local Villain _after_ that remote machine has run its crontab? Or would it be sufficient to run it every 5 (or so) minutes on the remote machine, so once I start my local Villain, it will take 4:59 secs max to connect (in that case, will the remote machine's crontab kill any active sessions once the payload runs again??)?

    Thank you very much 🙏My S14 Flip laptop. I was working and left it for a few minutes. When I came back, I was surprised to be asked for a new PIN code and that the old one was disabled and could not be accessed (explorer.exe - System Error).
    The system detected an overrun of a stack-based buffer in this application. This overrun could potentially allow a malicious user to gain control of this application) I felt frustrated and spent 9 hours trying to solve the problem, but the problem was not solved, and I do not know what is the reason for this problem. By the way, it is a completely new laptop that has been in service for only 4 months, an Asus S14Flip Ryzen 5600 laptop, a Radeon card, and RAM. 8 JB and its performance was very slow when browsing websites, but I noticed that sometimes its temperature increased.

      It's been basically a week since this tool reached the public eyes. The signature of it has long since been captured by Windows Defender and most major anti-malware solutions. Also, you can't run Powershell in Command Prompt. This tool isn't meant to be used in the wild. It's just a proof of concept and educational tool for people to see how reverse shells CAN work and potentially how they work. You need to learn the difference between command prompt and powershell.
