To be clear, the shell that was tested with was 'windows/shell_reverse_tcp' delivered via 'exploit/windows/smb/psexec'
Additional changes required to fix regex to support the multiline output. Also, InstanceId uses a lower case 'D' on the platforms I tested - PowerShell 2.0 on Windows 2003, Windows 7, Windows 2008 R2 as well as PowerShell 4.0 on Windows 2012 R2.
This method doesn't appear to be used anywhere in the Metasploit codebase currently.
I have a case where on a Windows 2008 R2 host with PowerShell 2.0 the 'have_powershell' method times out. When I interactively run the command I find that the output stops after the PowerShell command and the token from 'cmd_exec' is NOT displayed. When I hit return the shell then processes the '&echo <randomstring>' and generates the token that 'cmd_exec' was looking for. I tried various versions of the PowerShell command string such as 'Get-Host;Exit(0)', '$PSVErsionTable.PSVersion', and '-Command Get-Host' but was unable to change the behavior. I found that adding 'echo. | ' simulated pressing enter and did not disrupt the results on this host or on another host where the 'have_powershell' method functioned as expected.
There may be a better solution, but this was the only one that I could find.
The date format has been moved into a constant variable.
Certain modules do not have a disclosure_date. For example,
‘checkvm’. This necessitated checking disclosure_date for nil
before attempting a format conversion. Also, there was an additional
location in core.rb that needed the formatting / nil check added. Specs
were also updated appropriately.
'hex-all' encoding was previously ignoring slashes.
This pull adds 'hex-noslashes' mode which carries forward the previous functionality, and replaces all existing references to 'hex-all' with 'hex-noslashes' It then adds a replacement 'hex-all' mode, which really encodes *ALL* characters.
Previously the status message timing was determined by the number of
pairs left to process. I have adjusted the code to rely on Time.now
in order to consistently print a message out every 60 seconds.
SeeRM #8795
The disclosure date field in the results from the search command
where returning with a timestamp that was almost always 00:00:00 UTC. I added a bit of date time formatting to only
include the year (4 digit), month (2 digit), and day (2 digit)
in the following format: Y-m-d. This date time formatting
applies to both searches conducted through the database instance
as well as searches performed without a database (slow search).
This commit removes the creation of a separate, timed
thread for printing out status messages to the user
in the case of large PASS_FILEs. This adjustment eliminates
the overheard of context switching associated with
spinning off separate threads, as well as the dangers
associated with the Thread#kill method.
SeeRM #8704
When running a *_login module that contains a large PASS_FILE
the module appears to hang while it is creating the combinations over
such a large dataset. The solution proposed in the Redmine task
requested that the user be alerted with some sort of progress feedback
if the process takes an excessive amount of time.
I have added a message that logs to the console that contains the
number of pairs left to be constructed before the module will continue.
The verbiage is fairly arbitrary and should probably be updated to
something that might be more descriptive. Likewise, the sleep
interval may need to be adjusted.
MSP-9783
* Extracted import_report from monstrous import_msf_collateral;
simplified and clarified approach
* Updated report_report: includes all attrs provided vs subset, provides
more helpful error message
* Added report_artifact: adds child artifact for reports, handles
various troublesome cases
* Tested on all report types with a legion of option variants
