What are the advantages of using Boolang for shellcode execution compared to traditional methods?
The main advantages include: no need for compiled binaries with malicious imports, dynamic compilation in memory to evade static analysis, and the ability to separate the payload script from the launcher. The launcher (e.g., a PowerShell script) appears benign, while the actual shellcode is loaded from another file. This technique, explored in the article Exploitation Analysis of Executing Shellcode via Boolang Language, reduces the chance of detection by antivirus and EDR solutions.
