Useful for quick editing a module during development / bug fixing. I
don't really see a security issue with running a command defined in the
user's VISUAL or EDITOR environment variables; if the user can run
msfconsole to begin with, there are better ways to get into trouble.
When running a command that takes host ranges as arguments (e.g.,
`hosts`, `services`), the arguments get parsed by
Rex::Socket::RangeWalker. If RangeWalker was unable to parse, it would
return nil, which in this context means "all hosts." If the user is
searching, they get all hosts instead of the ones they were interested
in -- this is annoying, but not too big a deal. Unfortunately, the same
logic applied when *deleting* hosts, with `hosts -d ...`, causing all
hosts to be deleted when giving it an invalid range.
Passing MaxChar allows setting the maximum number of characters
printed within a specific column during the row_to_s method.
This does not affect CSV output nor truncate the actual data.
Meant for tidying up long console ouput.
Example: cleaned up cmd_creds to show proof and not maul tables
with unix session data.
Changing spool setting caused problems with prompt and color. This
fix makes the following changes:
- Saves the color setting and re-applies it to the new output console
- Sets the prompt in the same way that cmd_use does
While it makes lots of sense to bring check to all modules, of course
some modules will not be able to actually use it. Namely modules like
nop and payload modules. If you're feeling creative, you could probably
come up with semantically similar checks for those, too.
Allows console users to use the 'run' command for exploits as well as
auxiliary and post, in the same way that 'exploit' works for all three.
Saves some typing and makes it do the right thing so users don't have to
remember what kind of module they're using.
- Added sorting to cmd_notes
- Added make_sortable function so that sorts work happily even
when the disparate notes don't have content of the same types
in the fields the sort is requested over.
