Enhancements and Features (6)

• #19397 from sjanusz-r7 - This replaces the Readline library with Reline.


• #19448 from jvoisin - Adds a number of improvements to modules/post/multi/manage/screensaver.rb. A new UNLOCK action has been added. When the LOCK action is selected instead of only checking to see if xdg-screensaver lock exists on the target, the module will check for the presence of qdbus, dbus-send and loginctl. Improved error handling when running on Windows or Solaris has also been added.


• #19451 from jvoisin - Before this change php NOP sleds would be comprised of only spaces. Now the space, tab, semi-colon, carriage return and line feed characters will all be used in a random assortment to generate NOP sleds when needed.


• #19462 from jvoisin - This adds an Auto option to the Msf::Post::Linux::Compile library. This enables automatic selection of the compiler according to what is available locally on the target system.


• #19467 from jvoisin - This updates the lib/msf/core/exploit/remote/http/wordpress/admin.rb library such that when generate_plugin method gets called and the payload type is not ARCH_PHP - the library will use the php_preamble/php_system_block combo instead of hardcoding system/base64, as system might not be available on some WordPress deployments, and the combo has some low-hanging evasions for this case. This change also randomizes the license header of the plugin.


• #19478 from bcoles - Updates Metasploit to support new constants for RISCV32BE, RISCV32LE, RISCV64BE, RISCV64LE, LOONGARCH64.

Bugs Fixed (4)

• #19184 from adfoster-r7 - This updates bundler version and fixes multiple warnings when booting msfconsole.


• #19474 from sfewer-r7 - This fixes a bug in the DNS resolver on Windows platforms that prevented it from initializing.


• #19475 from NtAlexio2 - This refactors the pipe_auditor scanner module to allow an RPORT argument to be specified and refactors it to follow more recent patterns used by SMB modules.


• #19491 from jvoisin - Fixes a crash in lib/msf/core/payload/php.rb.

Documentation Added (1)

• #19493 from adfoster-r7 - Improves the documentation for testing that the post exploitation API works against the currently opened sessions.
