A collection of proof-of-concept source code and scripts for executing remote commands over WinRM using the WSMan.Automation COM object.
For background information, please refer to the following blog post: WS-Management COM: Another Approach for WinRM Lateral Movement
Notes
- SharpWSManWinRM.cs and CppWsManWinRM.cpp compile in Visual Studio 2019. Refer to the code comments for required imports/references/etc.
- All examples leverage the WMI Win32_Process class and WMI Create method for invocation.
