OleView.NET is a .NET 4 application to provide a tool which merges the classic SDK tools OleView and Test Container into one application. It allows you to find COM objects through a number of different views (e.g. by CLSID, by ProgID, by server executable), enumerate interfaces on the object and then create an instance and invoke methods. It also has a basic container to attack ActiveX objects to so you can see the display output while manipulating the data.
It comes with a both a UI and a PowerShell module. The PowerShell module must run in the last version of PowerShell 5, it does not work correctly in PowerShell 7+ as the latest versions of .NET have removed certain COM interop features that the project relies upon.
To correctly build from source you'll need to pull the repository and its submodules. You can do this using the command:
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/tyranid/oleviewdotnet.git
If you don't want to build the tools you can also get the latest published release from the PowerShell Gallery, here. Or by running the PowerShell command:
Install-Module OleViewDotNet
The PowerShell module also includes the UI executable, which you can run directly or by using the Show-ComDatabase command in PowerShell.
