executing cheat process via network

I am sure number of people might have already thought of this or even be using it currently.

I wanted to get peoples thoughts on the ability to execute a process or program from a remote network pc.

This could be a simple way of injecting your cheat silently without having to run a program while other are viewing your screen.

For example with psexec64 you could execute the program from another computer on the same network. This will work even if you have a hwid link to the pc, as it is being executed on the target pc, but just being initiated from another pc on the network.

All you have to do is:
psexec64 installed on a second computer.
Then goto cmd prompt and navigate to the location you have psexec64
type "psexec64 \\game-pc cmd"

(game-pc is the name of the target pc)

Then you should have the command prompt of the target pc on your network pc and can run anything on it. if your cheat had a config to inject without showing up, you could do this from the other pc whilst someone is watching your screen on main pc.

As far as I know some are using virtual machines or container and I think the function is quite similar or even the same they are using.

The advantage is that you can use it on local events if you haven't any connection from the outside. The disadvantage would be that you are using the same resources, so the virtual machine would be visible in the task manager/ps and you need to hide it as well.

From security perspective you migth be sure only the second computer is able to execute this command :D

Moreover if we are thinking about steamgames it might also be possible to load the cheat via a workshop. If you hide the payload in a picture/gif or whatever and get's it executed. And for most of the games you might load it via another server which we could say is the same like second computer if we have some code on a server which can be execute by using an exploit.
