Notes

Why did I make this?

Cobalt Strike uses a technique known as fork & run for many of its post-ex capabilities, including the screenshot command. While this behaviour provides stability, it is now well known and heavily monitored for. This BOF is meant to provide a more OPSEC safe version of the screenshot capability.
