Compile runner with nasm & MinGW (stolen from [PIC-Get-Privileges](https://github.com/paranoidninja/PIC-Get-Privileges/blob/main/runshellcode.asm)) for testing purposes:

{% code title="runShellcode.asm" %}

```asm
; Compile with:
; nasm -f win64 runShellcode.asm -o runShellcode.o
; x86_64-w64-mingw32-ld runShellcode.o -o runShellcode.exe

Global Start

Start:
    incbin "shellcode.bin"
```

{% endcode %}

Automated with Bash (like [shcode2exe](https://github.com/accidentalrebel/shcode2exe)):

{% code title="bin2compile.sh" %}

```bash
#!/usr/bin/env bash

# Usage:
#   bin2compile.sh {32|64} <INPUT_BIN> [OUTPUT_EXE]
# Examples:
#   msfvenom -p windows/x64/exec CMD=calc.exe -f raw -o calc.bin
#   bin2compile.sh 64 calc.bin calc.exe

SC_PATH=`realpath "${2}"`

if [[ "${ARCH}" == "32" ]]; then
    NASM_ARCH="win32"
    LD_ARCH="i386pe"
elif [[ "${ARCH}" == "64" ]]; then
    NASM_ARCH="win64"
    LD_ARCH="i386pep"
fi

echo "[*] Compiling x${ARCH}"
echo "[*] Compilation time: `date "+%F %H:%M:%S"`"

nasm -f "${NASM_ARCH}" -o "/tmp/${SC_NAME}.obj" "/tmp/${SC_NAME}.asm"
ld -m "${LD_ARCH}" -o "${EXE_NAME}" "/tmp/${SC_NAME}.obj" #-s --subsystem=windows
#strip "${EXE_NAME}"

if [[ "$?" -ne 1 ]]; then
    echo "[+] Success"
    echo "[+] Output size: `stat -c %s ${EXE_NAME} | numfmt --to=iec`"
else
    echo "[-] Failed"
fi

rm -f /tmp/${SC_NAME}.{asm,obj}
```
