+Privilege Escalation Modules
+============================
+
+Privilege escalation in ``pwncat`` is implemented using a pluggable privilege escalation framework
+which allows new methods to be easily implemented and integrated into ``pwncat``. All privilege
+escalation methods inherit from the ``pwncat.privesc.base.Method`` class and are implemented under
+the ``pwncat/privesc`` directory.
+
+Methods vs Techniques
+---------------------
+
+Privelege escalation methods may implement multiple techniques. Techniques represent a single action
+which a specific privilege escalation method can perform. Each technique is identified by it's method,
+the user which the action can be performed as, a Capability and some method specific data.
+
+Capabilities are one of ``READ``, ``WRITE`` or ``SHELL`` and are specified with the
+``pwncat.gtfobins.Capability`` flags. Each technique must specify one and only one capability.
+
+Privilege escalation is implemented by iterating over all known methods and enumerating all techniques.
+After techniques are gathered, ``pwncat`` attempts to put the different file read, write or shell
+techniques together to perform some action. For example, it might use a shell technique to.. well...
+get a shell. However, ``pwncat`` may also attempt to read a file with a shell technique or gain a
+shell with a file read technique. The individual privilege escalation methods do not need to worry
+about this, though. They only need to enumerate all available techniques and implement the
+associated execution methods for those techniques.
+
+Implementing a Privilege Escalation Method
+------------------------------------------
+
+Privilege escalation methods normally take the form of common vulnerabilities or misconfigurations
+in the target host. For example, there are built-in privesc methods for SUID binaries, sudo privileges
+and a few common vulnerabilities. Each method implements up to five different class methods.
+
+The first method is the ``check`` method. This is a ``classmethod`` which simply tests to make sure
+that the dependencies of this privesc method are available. It should check that the required
+binaries, packages or libraries associated with this escalation are available. By default, the base
+class will check that all binaries specified in the class variable ``BINARIES`` are present on the
+remote system. If anything is missing from the remote system rendering this method unusable, the check
+method should raise a ``PrivescError`` exception with a description of what is missing.
+
+The next method is the ``enumerate`` method. This function returns a list of ``pwncat.privesc.base.Technique``
+objects, each describing a technique which this method is capable of performing on the remote host.
+For example, the SUID method iterates over all known SUID binaries and checks for file write, file
+read or shell capabilities with GTFObins. It returns techniques which overlap with the capabilities
+requested:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    def enumerate(self, caps: Capability = Capability.ALL) -> List[Technique]:
+        """ Find all techniques known at this time """
+
+        # Update the cache for the current user
+        self.find_suid()
+
+        known_techniques = []
+        for suid in pwncat.victim.host.suid:
+            try:
+                binary = pwncat.victim.gtfo.find_binary(suid.path, caps)
+            except BinaryNotFound:
+                continue
+
+            for method in binary.iter_methods(suid.path, caps, Stream.ANY):
+                known_techniques.append(
+                    Technique(suid.owner.name, self, method, method.cap)
+                )
+
+        return known_techniques
+
+The last three methods all take a parameter of a ``Technique`` object. This ``Technique`` will
+be one of the techniques returned from ``enumerate`` by this method. They implement the three
+capabilities which are possible. The first is the ``execute`` method. This method is used to
+escalate privileges and gain a shell as the user specified in the technique. This type of
+technique is returned, for example, from a SUID ``/bin/bash``, because we are able to directly
+gain a shell as the owning user. It should perform the escalation and return with the remote
+host currently at a prompt for the new user. If there are any issues or errors, it will raise a
+``PrivescError`` with the description of the problem. The return value of this function is a
+bytes object which can exit the terminal and return to the previous user. In a simple case, this
+could be just "exit". In a more complicated case, like getting a shell from within ``vim``, this
+may include control sequences to exit the shell and the containing application.
+
+Next, methods can implement the ``read_file`` function. This function returns a file-like object
+used to read data from a remote file as the user specified in the technique. This is possible,
+for example in situations where a binary such as ``cat`` is SUID. Again, if there is an issue,
+a ``PrivescError`` is raised.
+
+The last method which may be implemented is the ``write_file`` method. This method will write
+the given data to a file as the user specified in the technique. The method does not return
+any data and should simply write the requested data using the technique specified.

+Working with remote services
+----------------------------
+
+``pwncat`` will attempt to figure out what type of init system is being used on the target host and provide
+an abstracted interface to system services. The abstractions are available under the ``pwncat/remote/service.py`` file.
+Currently, ``pwncat`` only supports SystemD, but the interface is abstracted to support other init systems
+such as SysVInit or Upstart if the interface is implemented.
+
+The ``pwncat.remote.service.service_map`` maps names of init systems to their abstract ``RemoteService``
+class implementation. This is how ``pwncat`` selects the appropriate remote service backend.
+
+Regardless of the underlying init system, ``pwncat`` provides methods for querying known services, enabling
+auto-start, starting, stopping and creation of remote services.
+
+To query a list of remote services, you can use the ``pwncat.victim.services`` property. This is an iterator
+yielding each abstracted service object. Each object contains a name, description, and state as well as
+methods for starting, stopping, enabling or disabling the service. This functionality obviously depends
+on you having the correct permission to manage the services, however retrieve the state and list of
+services should work regardless of your permission level.
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    from pwncat import victim
+
+    for service in victim.services:
+        print(f"{service.name} is {'running' if service.running else 'stopped'}")
+
+To find a specific service by name, there is a ``find_service`` method which returns an individual
+remote service object. If the service is not found, a ValueError is raised.
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    from pwncat import victim
+
+    sshd = victim.find_service("sshd")
+
+
+The interface for creating services is provided through the ``create_service`` method, which allows
+you to specify a target binary name which serves as the entrypoint for your service as well as a name
+description, and enabled state. A ``PermissionError`` is raised if you do not have permission to create
+the specified service. This method also returns a wrapped ``RemoteService`` object for the newly
+created service.
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    from pwncat import victim
+
+    pwncat = victim.create_service(name="pwncat",
+                                   description="a malicious service",
+                                   target="/usr/bin/pwncat_service",
+                                   runas="root",
+                                   enable=True,
+                                   user=False)
+    pwncat.start()
+
+Starting, stopping or enabling a service is as easy as calling a method or setting a property:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    from pwncat import victim
+
+    try:
+        sshd = victim.find_service("sshd")
+        sshd.enabled = False
+        sshd.stop()
+    except PermissionError:
+        print("you don't have permission to modify sshd :(")
+    except ValueError:
+        print("sshd doesn't exist!")
