  Description     : reverse shell handler with all netcat features

pwncat is a fully compatible netcat fork written in Python with many more
aggressive network features on top.
.
It comes with a Python Scripting Engine (PSE) that allows you to manipulate
incoming and outgoing traffic to your needs. This can reach from wrapping
current TCP/UDP traffic into higher protocols such as HTTP, FTP, Telnet,
etc or even go to encrypting and decrypting your traffic.
.
Besides regular netcat features like full IPv4, IPv6 and UDP/TCP, IP ToS,
port scanning, server/client, bind, and reverse shells, it also comes with
pivoting features, ssh-less local and remote port-forwarding, port-hopping,
target self-injection and many more.
