Demonstration of Paste-Injected Code

This page demonstrates how an attacker can trick a user into executing commands by having them paste text into a system dialog. This is a common social engineering technique used to gain initial access to a computer.

To see the demonstration:

  1. Click the "Copy Command" button below.
  2. Press Windows + R to open the Run dialog.
  3. Press Ctrl + V to paste the command.
  4. Press Enter to execute it.

A PowerShell window will appear with a harmless message. This simulates how a malicious command, hidden in text you were asked to copy, could be executed without your full understanding.
