I just wanted to write a basic note of the two shells here, that used use in pentest and it may be use full for the offensive hacking learners.
Blind Shell
A blind shell is, exposing a shell or command line access to the public world and it is initiating from the victim machine to the outside.
If the victim machine is with public IP it will expose to the public world.
Reverse Shell
A Reverse shell is, exposing a shell or command line to the a single machine and it is mostly initiated from the victim machine to the attacker machine by exploiting a vulnerability or security flaw.
Blind Vs Reverse
The similarity with both shells is actually initiating from the victim machine and the difference is blind shell is exposing the shell to a particular machine (attacker), but the blind shell is exposed to outside inside the network (may be public)
