My favorite to date about smart console is one time I played light hearted prank on one of my colleagues when I switched to dark mode, she "freaked" lol

Excellent post btw! 👌👌

@PhoneBoy

If you want to scare your colleague again, you can also use the following perl code to execute this as a small Trojan 😀

PS:

I store this perl code similarly in KeePass to automatically log in to smart consoles. This allows you to authenticate yourself centrally at KeePass and then automatically transfer the KeePass data via KeePass API and Perl to the SmartConsole login page. If anyone is interested, I can write an article about it!

use strict;
use warnings;
use Win32::GuiTest qw(SendKeys);

# Wait a few seconds to allow the user to focus the target window
sleep(3);
SendKeys("^{F3}");
sleep(1);
SendKeys("{TAB}");
sleep(0.3);
SendKeys("{DOWN}");
sleep(0.3);
SendKeys("{DOWN}");
sleep(0.3);
SendKeys("{ENTER}");
sleep(0.3);
SendKeys("{TAB}");
sleep(0.3);
SendKeys("{ENTER}");
sleep(0.3);
SendKeys("{ENTER}");

I called it dark mode, but its technically high contract. Yes, CTRL + F3 🙂
