Overview of this book

Metasploit is a popular penetration testing framework that has one of the largest exploit databases around. This book will show you exactly how to prepare yourself against the attacks you will face every day by simulating real-world possibilities. We start by reminding you about the basic functionalities of Metasploit and its use in the most traditional ways. You’ll get to know about the basics of programming Metasploit modules as a refresher, and then dive into carrying out exploitation as well building and porting exploits of various kinds in Metasploit. In the next section, you’ll develop the ability to perform testing on various services such as SCADA, databases, IoT, mobile, tablets, and many more services. After this training, we jump into real-world sophisticated scenarios where performing penetration tests are a challenge. With real-life case studies, we take you on a journey through client-side attacks using Metasploit and various scripts built on the Metasploit framework. By the end of the book, you will be trained specifically on time-saving techniques using Metasploit.

Breakthrough meterpreter scripting

The meterpreter shell is the most desired type of access an attacker will like to have on the target.

In this section, we will look at those scripts, what they are made of, and how we can leverage them in meterpreter.

Essentials of meterpreter scripting

As far as we have seen, we have used meterpreter in situations where we needed to perform some additional tasks on the system. However, now we will look at some of the advanced situations that may arise during a penetration test, where the scripts already present in...
