Metasploit Framework 4.2.0

Metasploit Framework 4.2.0

“The Metasploit Framework is a penetration testing toolkit, exploit development platform, and research tool. The framework includes hundreds of working remote exploits for a variety of platforms. Payloads, encoders, and nop slide generators can be mixed and matched with exploit modules to solve almost any exploit-related task.“

Official change log for Metasploit Framework 4.2.0:

  • IPv6 Coverage:
    Metasploit 4.2 now ships with thirteen brand new payloads, all added to support opening command sessions and shells on IPv6 networks. In addition, Metasploit’s existing arsenal of payloads has been updated to support IPv6 as well. The database back end now fully supports IPv6 addressing for discovered and compromised hosts. Rex, Metasploit’s general purpose socket and protocol library, is now compatible with IPv6 networks. The ability to launch attacks over IPv6, even in otherwise IPv4 networks, is crucial in the modern penetration testing environment, so if you’re not yet up to speed on auditing a client network’s IPv6 exposure, be sure to catch HD Moore’s free IPv6 security online training on March 28.
  • Virtualization as an Attack Vector
    With this release comes a pile of new modules targeting VMware vSphere/ESX SOAP interface, as well as a pair of new brute force modules to audit password strength for both vmauthd and Virtual Web Services. Here’s the quick list of the new virtual target hotness:
  • vmauthd_version : Discovers the version details for a vmauthd service
  • esx_fingerprint : Fingerprints (down to the build number) of a stand-alone ESX server
  • vmware_http_login : Attempts to brute force local VMware credentials via the Web Services interface
  • vmauthd_login : Attempts to brute force local VMware credentials via the vmauthd service
  • vmware_enum_users : Enumerates both local and domain VMware user accounts
  • vmware_enum_permissions : Enumerates locally-defined user and group permissions on aVMware instance
  • vmware_enum_sessions : Enumerates active VMware login sessions
  • vmware_enum_vms : Enumerates all local virtual machines on the local VMware instance
  • vmware_host_details : Discovers host hardware and software details of the VMware host machine
  • poweroff_vm : Powers off a virtual machine via the VMware Web Services interface
  • poweron_vm : Powers on a virtual machine via the VMware Web Services interface
  • tag_vm : Writes a user-defined “tag” to the VMware logs as proof of compromise
  • vmware_screenshot_stealer : Grabs screenshots of VMware guest operating systems as proof of compromise
  • terminate_esx_sessions : Disconnects a user from the ESX server
  • Virtual machine targets in a network often offer unique avenues of attack for penetration testers, and are sometimes overlooked by IT departments and security infrastructure groups alike. Rapid7′s David Maloney, aka, TheLightCosine, wrote most of these modules. For a deep-dive into virtualization security, please join his webcast on March 21.
  • New Resource Scripts
    Metasploit 4.2 now ships with fourteen new resource scripts, nearly all of which were provided byopen source community contributors. These scripts demonstrate the power of Metasploit’s extensible architecture, allowing programmatic Metasploit module usage through the powerful Ruby scripting language. By automating away penetration testing tasks common to most engagements, Metasploit expert users can free up valuable time for more interesting avenues of research and exploitation. Note that while these scripts are useful on their own, they’re also great examples of using this entry point and really getting your hands dirty with Metasploit internals. Finally, most of these scripts were submitted by open source contributor m-1-k-3, while the Oracle-centric scripts come from nebulous.
