# Reverse shell - One-liners

While working on a pentest you might need to use a one-liner shell. Typically you will have a cheat sheet for one-liners but that will require you to Google it, and you also have to customize them! \
We've got your back here, **Go to Tools -> Shell One-Liner**

Here you can select the language for your shell. Then type the address of Exploit Pack where the shell is going to connect back. In this example, we are creating a simple PHP one-liner that could be run as a web shell. Ready to run it? You need a listener!

Click "**Start listener**" to bring up the wizard as shown in the screenshot. We are using the port 5678, that was configured as the same port to be used by the one-liner:

Good luck with your one-liners! And remember to scale it up to a full agent!
