Edited modules/auxiliary/gather/lansweeper_collector.rb first landed in
and minor description word choice changes.
Edited modules/auxiliary/server/browser_autopwn2.rb first landed in
options. Also removed from the description the missing options of
'WhiteList' and 'RealList' -- those don't appear to be available
according to `show options` and `show advanced`, @wchen-r7.
Edited modules/post/multi/recon/local_exploit_suggester.rb first landed
in #5823, mv local_exploit_{suggestor,suggester} for minor description
cleanup and axing the description of the SHOWDESCRIPTION option (it's
already described identically on the option itself).
This module exploits a logic error in OpenSSL by impersonating the
server and sending a specially-crafted chain of certificates, resulting
in certain checks on untrusted certificates to be bypassed on the
client, allowing it to use a valid leaf certificate as a CA certificate
to sign a fake certificate. The SSL/TLS session is then proxied to the
server allowing the session to continue normally and application data
transmitted between the peers to be saved. This module requires an
active man-in-the-middle attack.
This module exploits an incomplete internal state distinction in Java
Secure Socket Extension (JSSE) by impersonating the server and finishing
the handshake before the peers have authenticated themselves and
instantiated negotiated security parameters, resulting in a plaintext
SSL/TLS session with the client. This plaintext SSL/TLS session is then
proxied to the server using a second SSL/TLS session from the proxy to
the server (or an alternate fake server) allowing the session to
continue normally and plaintext application data transmitted between the
peers to be saved. This module requires an active man-in-the-middle
attack.
