Apparently, my last update came from the future. This modification
to that future update fixes an oversight preventing Armitage from
connecting to its collaboration server because it would report the
wrong application.
This update to Armitage improves its responsiveness when connected
to a team server over a high latency network. This update also adds
a publish/query/subscribe API to Cortana.
The HttpOpenRequest function from WinINet requires the
INTERNET_FLAG_KEEP_CONNECTION flag to communicate through an
authenticated proxy.
From MSDN ( http://tinyurl.com/chwt86j ):
"Uses keep-alive semantics, if available, for the connection. This
flag is required for Microsoft Network (MSN), NT LAN Manager (NTLM),
and other types of authentication."
Without this flag, the HTTP stager will fail when faced with a proxy
that requires authentication. The Windows HTTPS stager does not have
this problem.
For HTTP Meterpreter to communicate through an authenticated proxy a
separate patch will need to be made to the Meterpreter source code.
This is at line 1125 of source/common/core.c in the Meterpreter source
code.
My motivation for this request is for windows/dllinject/reverse_http
to download a DLL even when faced with an authenticated proxy. These
changes accomplish this.
Test environment:
I staged a SmoothWall device with the Advanced Proxy Web Add-on. I
enabled Integrated Windows Authentication with a W2K3 DC. I verified
the HTTP stager authenticated to and communicated through the proxy
by watching the proxy access.log
This update adds the ability to manage multiple team server instances
through one Armitage client. This update also adds nickname completion
to the event log. Several bug fixes are included too.
This update to Armitage adds the ability to assign labels to hosts
and create dynamic workspaces based on these labs. This update also
adds helpers to configure USERNAME/PASSWORD options and EXE::Custom
and EXE::Template. Several bugs were fixed as well.
Armitage on Windows requires the user to specify their MSF
install folder. This tweak checks for an MSF 4.5 environment
and updates the specified folder to make everything work.
Like magic.
This is Armitage release 01.04.13. This update fixes several bugs
and improves the user experience launching *_login modules from
Armitage. This update adds a Windows 8 icon and includes a fix to
better work with the Metasploit 1.45 installer's environment.
