This change adds two new Rex exceptions and changes the local comm to raise the right one depending on the circumstances. The problem with the existing model is
that failed binds and failed connections both raised the same exception. This change is backwards compatible with modules that rescue Rex::AddressInUse in additi
on to Rex::ConnectionError. There were two corner cases that rescued Rex::AddressInUse specifically:
1. The 'r'-services mixin and modules caught the old exception when handling bind errors. These have been updated to use BindFailed
2. The meterpreter client had a catch for the old exception when the socket reports a bad destination (usually a network connection dropped). This has been updat
ed to use InvalidDestination as that was the intention prior to this change.
Since AddressInUse was part of ConnectionError, modules and mixins which caught both in the same rescue have been updated to just catch ConnectionError.
There has been Meterpreter work done as well to support this. But this
commit allows for a new 'getsid' command which tells you the sid of the
current process/thread. This can be used for things like determining
whether the current process is running as system. It could also be used
for golden ticket creation, among other things.
Instead of the eventual target where our proxy chain will connect. In
the usual case (no Proxies set), this will be the same output as before.
When proxies are given, the user will see that the first proxy
connection is actually what failed.
Otherwise, we risk getting our connections killed by particularly
aggressive DPI devices (IPS, firewalls, etc)
