If the session doesn't have a payload UUID we now generate one as best
we can. This code will probably go away when TCP related transports have
had the UUID stuf baked in.
This uses HD's UUID stuff to generate a new URI for the transport.
Currently we don't have UUID support for TCP connections, but that's
coming.
Still do to: generation of a valid UUID for payloads that don't already
have one.
We had a workaround to close connections on very old wininet implementations
that would not do it themselves. With the new WinHttp API-using meterpreters
and stagers, we no longer should use this workaround. It can actually be
actively bad and prematurely close the connection.
This needs testing around different payloads, and they should be on real
networks, ideally where TCP really has to work to get data transfered.
* Move the uri checksum code to a spot that can be shared with rex.
* Adjust modules to make use of this new location.
* Fix up the tranpsort switcher to add the URI for those payloads.
This commit adds plumbing which allows for the creation of stageless
meterpreter payloads that include extensions. The included transprots at
this point are bind_tcp, reverse_tcp and reverse_https, all x86.
More coming for x64. Will also validate http soon.
Rather than operating on a passed-in HKEY, these open and close the registry
key directly for each operation.
This pattern better reflects the actual API usage within msf, and removes extra
round-trips to open and close the registry key, reducing traffic and increasing
performance. I did not add direct versions of every registry operation.
There was no benefit for more rarely-used operations, other than requiring more
churn in the meterpreters.
The primary beneficiary of this is post exploitation modules that do registry
or service enumeration. See #3693 for test cases.
Rather than assume that the destination argument is a directory, check
first, and then do the same thing that 'cp' would do.
- If dest exists and is a directory, copy to the directory.
- If dest exists and is a file, copy over the file.
- If dest does not exist and is a directory, fail.
- If dest does not exist and is a file, create the file.
In #4475, I incorrectly interpreted the role of the 'incomplete' array
in monitor_socket, and that change should be reverted.
What appears to happen is, we play a kind of 3-card monty with the list
of received packets that are waiting for a handler to use them.
monitor_socket continually loops between putting the packets on @pqueue,
then into backlog[] to sort them, then into incomplete[] to list all of
the packets that did not have handlers, finally back into @pqueue again.
If packets don't continually get shuffled back into incomplete, they are
not copied back into @pqueue to get rescanned again.
The only reason anything should really get into incomplete[] is if we
receive a packet, but there is nothing to handle it. This scenario
sounds like a bug, but it is exactly what happens with the Tcp Client
channel - one can open a new channel, and receive a response packet back
from the channel before the subsequent read_once code runs to register a
handler to actually process it. This would be akin to your OS
speculatively accepting data on a TCP socket with no listener, then when
you open the socket for the first time, its already there.
While it would be nice if the handlers were setup before the data was
sent back, rather than relying on a handler being registered some time
between connect and PacketTimeout, this needs to get in now to stop the
bleeding. The original meterpreter crash issue from #4475 appears to be
gone as well.
When using the Meterpreter Binaries gem to locate the path to the
meterpreter DLLs, it's not necessary to use File.expand_path on
the result because the gem's code does this already.
This commit simple removes those unnecessary calls.
