Usage#
Step 1. Launch Veil#
After using the veil command to launch Veil, the Veil menu is displayed
Step 2. Select Evasion#
To use Veil for evasion, select the first option (number 1). Veil then shows the available payloads and Veil commands.
Step 3. List the Payloads#
To list the available payloads, use the list command, and you see the screen in Figure.
Step 4. Install a Payload#
In Figure, the Meterpreter reverse TCP payload is used. After you select the payload, you have to set the local host (LHOST) and then use the generate command to generate the payload.
Figure shows the default Python installer being used to generate the payload.
