Run python script using Powershell loop...

[BaskervilleByte]

Hi,

I need to run a Python Zerologon_tester.py script within a powershell script but have no idea how to do this

The python script zerologon_tester.py uses the following syntax:

.\zerologon_tester.py <DomainControllerHostname> <IP>

I want to use a powershell script such as the following and add the domain hostname and IP address into the python script using variables for the syntax, something as follows:

import-module activedirectory

$env:PATHEXT += ";.py"

$dchostname = get-addomaincontroller -filter * | select-object name,ipv4addpress

foreach ($dc in $dchostname){

.\zerologon_tester.py $dc.name $dc.ipv4address

}

I also need to make sure that the next execution only follows the completions of the preceding one

Many thanks

Afaik, you can run any command in a PS script that you could run at a CMD prompt.

So the code you show should work.

What is the problem?
Doesn't the PS script wait till the Phyton script completes?

Hi,

The python script runs, however the variables do not get added to the .py script syntax

Can I assume that this is not possible to mix Ps variables into a python script like this...

.\zerologon_tester.py $dc.name $dc.ipv4address

The error returned is from the Python script:

Tests whether a domain controller is vulnerable to the zerologon attack. Does not attempt to make any changes.

Note: dc-name should be the (NetBIOS) computer name of the domain controller.

Usage: zerologon_tester.py <dc-name> <dc-ip>

Thanks!

I personally never mixed PS and python, but this article seems to show how you can pass arguments

Hi,

Thanks for the article it did help

Also I did have a typo in one of my select objects

The following script works fine,

The next thing I would like to be able to do is pull the returning lines of output to either a .csv or .txt file

'Success! DC can be fully compromised by a Zerologon attack.'

or

'Attack failed. Target is probably patched.'

Any ideas on how I can do this?

Many, many thanks again!

Did you try like this?

$result = python $PyProg $HN $IP
