PayloadsAllTheThings

The entire Payloads section — 64 topics,136 pages — is a verbatim mirror ofPayloadsAllTheThings, created and maintained by Swissky (@swisskyrepo) and hundreds of contributors. It is one of the most valuable payload and bypass references in the field, and every page here links back to its upstream source.

// provenance · payloadsallthethings

  • Upstream: github.com/swisskyrepo/PayloadsAllTheThings
  • License: MIT
  • Mirrored at commit: 3ac27901c711
  • Fidelity: markdown is mirrored on-site; images and raw payload files (wordlists, scripts) load from, or link to, the upstream repository.

This mirror is provided for convenience and offline-friendly search. The upstream repository remains the canonical source — please star it, contribute back, and consider sponsoring the maintainer.

InternalAllTheThings

The entire Internal section — 9 sections,176 pages — is a verbatim mirror ofInternalAllTheThings, also created and maintained by Swissky (@swisskyrepo) and its contributors. It is the home of the Active Directory, cloud and red-team material that PayloadsAllTheThings moved out of its own tree, and every page here links back to its upstream source.

// provenance · internalallthethings

  • Upstream: github.com/swisskyrepo/InternalAllTheThings
  • License: the repository publishes no LICENSE file, so no licence is claimed or implied here. Copyright stays with Swissky and the project's contributors.
  • Mirrored at commit: 203bb0c0b290
  • Fidelity: markdown is mirrored on-site; images and other assets load from, or link to, the upstream repository.

This mirror exists for search and offline-friendly reading, with attribution on every page. The upstream repository is the canonical source — please star it and contribute back. If the author would rather this mirror were changed or taken down, open an issue on the site repository and it will be honoured.

HackTricks

The HackTricks Library contains 613 pagesacross 5 sections, adapted fromHackTricksby Carlos Polop and its contributors. Every page links to the precise upstream file.

// provenance · hacktricks

  • Upstream: github.com/HackTricks-wiki/hacktricks
  • Creator: Carlos Polop; additional copyright remains with the relevant upstream contributors and externally attributed authors.
  • License: Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International.
  • Imported at commit: 188de82beb54e70956b2952367a0af91d26758b8
  • Changes: this is an adapted mirror. GitBook wrappers and training banners were removed, frontmatter was added, and repository-relative links were rewritten for the local site or pinned upstream commit.
  • Use restriction: HackTricks-derived pages are provided for non-commercial use only. No endorsement by HackTricks or its contributors is implied.

The upstream repository remains canonical. Corrections should be contributed there whenever possible; this site can then regenerate its adapted copy from a newer commit.

ired.team

ired.team — the red teaming notes ofMantvydas Baranauskas (@mantvydasb) — is the reference behind sheets in Exploitation and DFIR. His write-ups on process injection and on Windows internals are some of the most careful hands-on documentation of those subjects anywhere.

ired.team publishes no licence. That grants no right to copy it, so nothing from it is mirrored here. Sheets that draw on it are written from scratch for this site; commands, API sequences and technique facts are reproduced as facts; and the screenshots load from the upstream repository at a pinned commit rather than being copied onto this domain.

// provenance · ired.team

  • Upstream: github.com/mantvydasb/RedTeaming-Tactics-and-Techniques
  • Author: Mantvydas Baranauskas. Per the upstream README, most techniques documented there were discovered by other researchers and he does not claim their ownership.
  • License: none published — no LICENSE file, the repository license field is null, and the licence API returns 404.
  • Pinned at commit: 8cdbdd60eb4a8997e689649f3911f7c893e59ed9 (read 2026-09-28)
  • Fidelity: not a mirror. No upstream prose is reproduced. Sheet text is original; each sheet is marked derived and links the guide it draws on.
  • Images: screenshots remain the author's. They are hotlinked from the upstream repository at the commit above, credited individually in each caption, and are not redistributed from this site.
  • On request: if the author would prefer this material not be referenced here, it will be removed — open an issue on the site repository or contact the maintainer.

ired.team remains canonical and considerably deeper than any summary of it. Every sheet that draws on it links the original guide; read it there.

Locked

Unlock with your Main_Key through local GPG.

Start the local GPG helper

In your cheatsheet checkout, run:

npm run unlock:helper

Open the link it prints, or paste its pairing code below. Keep the terminal open until GPG finishes.

Import an index you already decrypted

Download the encrypted index, then decrypt with GPG:

gpg --output report-index.json --decrypt report-index.gpg

Your private key stays in GPG. The decrypted index is saved in this browser so you can reopen it after navigation, refreshes and restarts. Lock this browser or clear this site's browser data to remove the saved index. Nothing is uploaded.
