pyinstaller isn't converting (or generate a corrupted exe) when pwn package is imported

Time：10-15

i am working on reverse shell project using pwn as Client/Server instead of using socket because it's more comfortable in receiving (recvuntil) messages ,but when ever i tried to convert it to EXE using pyinstaller to onefile it ended up failing , generating a corrupted exe or generate an exe that keeps giving Errors ,i even have tested this program on console first.

so is there a way to make it work or even to make my own pyinstaller (if i have to)?

i can't think of better title than this ,so if you have better just comment it

my venv conda python version is 3.9.7

Here is a little Server Code (this is just for testing):

import threading
from pwn import *
def tryThreading():
    l=listen(5005)
    client=l.wait_for_connection()
    def tryRecv():
        while True:
            if client.can_recv():
                print('\n-Bob: ' client.recv().decode())
    recv=threading.Thread(target=tryRecv)
    recv.start()
    while True:
        client.send(input('-Sam: ').encode())
tryThreading()

Here is a test run of the above Program:

(pyins) C:\Users\YCS\Desktop>python tryPwn.py
[x] Trying to bind to :: on port 5005
[x] Trying to bind to :: on port 5005: Trying ::
[ ] Trying to bind to :: on port 5005: Done
[x] Waiting for connections on :::5005
[ ] Waiting for connections on :::5005: Got connection from ::1 on port 60340
-Sam: Hello
-Sam:
-Bob: Hello World

Here is pyinstaller output:

CodePudding user response：

After Three days of debugging i can tell that there is two steps for the solution to work:

firstly: Try to reinstall pwntools package by removing it firstly and then install it

pip uninstall pwn
pip uninstall pwntools
pip uninstall pwnlib
pip install pwn
pip install pwntools

secondly: after you get your spec file open it and add these lines:

from PyInstaller.utils.hooks import collect_all
    
datas=collect_all('pwn')[0]
datas =collect_all('pwnlib')[0]

and change the empty list([]) into datas inside the analysis:

a = Analysis(['tryPwn.py'],
         pathex=['C:\\Users\\YCS\\Desktop'],
         binaries=[],
         datas=datas,
         hiddenimports=[],
         hookspath=[],
         hooksconfig={},
         runtime_hooks=[],
         excludes=[],
         win_no_prefer_redirects=False,
         win_private_assemblies=False,
         cipher=block_cipher,
         noarchive=False)

and then just convert it using your options and the spec file:

pyinstaller --onefile --noconfirm tryPwn.spec

enjoy
