; Pipe output from injected DLL back to the injector console (requires DLL support) EnableConsolePipe=true
Because the logic is driven by an INI file, the same injector binary can be reused across different campaigns, games, or penetration tests just by editing a text file.
; Number of retries before giving up MaxRetries=3 dllinjector.ini
Some injectors use the .ini to determine if they should "wait" for a process to start before attempting injection. How to Configure dllinjector.ini
The dll_whisperer revealed that Zero Cool had created a backdoor in the "dllinjector.ini" file, allowing them to remotely control the injected DLLs. The hacker had been using this access to wreak havoc on unsuspecting applications. ; Pipe output from injected DLL back to
