#VBScript
In high school, I'd use VBScript and the associated VB controls to build interactive PowerPoint presentations to illustrate concepts

Quick question: why are you using vbscript from a task to launch PowerShell?

You can just launch PowerShell.

Also, VBScript is deprecated and will be removed in the next couple of years.

Good question. The normal S4U path already runs PowerShell. The issue is the interactive fallback, where Windows creates a console before "-WindowStyle Hidden" takes effect, so it can still flash. The VBScript wrapper starts it hidden and waits for completion. Agreed it needs replacing long-term.

Ah right thank you! That's what I love about it, tho' occasionally the granularity trips me up (networking stuff mostly, different commands for DNS etc). You can literally "have a go" at something - stick to Get- and try out things like disk, network etc. So intuitive compared to wscript/vbscript

VB, VBA, VB.NET, VBScript, and VB6 all look like they belong in the same family reunion. They do, sort of. But using the wrong example can lead to some wonderfully confusing results. youtu.be/U_YqdYIkeIA

BAT内で高度な処理:mshta+VBScript編

 mshta vbscript:execute("VBScriptのコード")

例:
 mshta vbscript:execute("MsgBox (1+1): window.close")

1+1が計算され「2」と表示される。

良いBATをコーディングするためには,
WSHの知識も必要。

Fake notary and invoice emails in Brazil and Portugal start with a VBScript file, then use built-in Windows tools and signed apps to install remote-access trojans, WatchGuard says. IOCs inside.

Not just one guy, but yeah, the early days be like that.

Then team after team and company after company tried it and started seeing the benefits:

1. Shorter and more maintainable than VBScript
2. Less parsing and praying than Bash
3. Increased interoperability with the object pipeline.

Netresec (Erik Hjelmvik) retrohunted a WhatsApp VBScript campaign and found a .vbs pulling a dropper from Backblaze B2. The dropper deployed NSecRTS.exe, the Ping32 agent.

The same C2 server showed up in a ValleyRAT sample. Netresec says Silver Fox is possible, not confirmed.

ClickFix keeps evolving. Microsoft Threat Intelligence found compromised sites quietly caching a VBScript in the browser, disguised as a PNG.

The fake Cloudflare check has you paste a Run command that does not download anything. It just finds the cached file by size and runs it.
