Interestingly enough Rapid7 in its documentation on the (expensive) Metasploit Pro does not discuss the command line option "sessions -u" to upgrade a sessoin - Rapid 7 only presents the option to start a meterpreter shell via the "available actions" on the graphical interface of MSF Pro. Works perfectly - at least after this specific succession of steps. SESSION_ID has to be replaced by the session ID.

They then prepare a suitable executable of the exploit and install it on the attack's target host (i.e. They use an additional exploit for a privilege escalation to get root rights and to open a reverse shell to the attacking host they provide the IP address of the Kali host and a listener port there as parameters of the exploit.They use the exploit DistCC from a Kali host and get a command shell.The named authors perform the following attack steps to get a session on a Metasploitable target: Upgrade of a plaintext command shell with " sessions -u"

In the named book the authors mention a specific method, namely to upgrade an existing "session" to a meterpreter session. To replace a basic command shell of an achieved session on an attacked target with meterpreter actually is a basic move within MSF, but you may have to take care of some steps ahead.

Often exploits offered by the MSF will not give you a chance to transfer meterpreter as a payload, but only simple interaction shells. Your first objective then - for convenience reasons, but also for obfuscation reasons - is probably to work with a meterpreter shell, which indeed offers a variety of very convenient commands for a post exploitation phase. So - again with the explicit consent of your customer and after a solid risk estimation for the systems and networks under investigation - you may start exploits, e.g with the help of the Metasploit framework. Exploits and shellsĭuring pen-testing (always with the consent of your customer and system administrator) you may not only be requested to find vulnerabilities, but also to verify that an attacker really could exploit them. Never expose a Metasploitable system to the Internet. Cooperate with the administrators to configure respective network segments and firewalls. If you test out the examples given below, only do this in environments for which the owners and the administrators of the affected networks and systems have given you explicit written consent to install, isolate and use systems with MSF and a Metasploitable target system. Book references are given at the end of this post. It partially refers to information on the Metasploit Framework and Metasploitable targets published in different form elsewhere. The chapter deserves some additional hints, small, but hopefully useful for beginners.Īll the information given in this post is for educational purposes and addresses people interested in and starting with penetration testing.

This post was inspired by a chapter of the authors about "meterpreter" which they introduced after an exploitation example, i.e.

on targets like Metasploitable 2 or 3 or on prepared Windows systems. However, at some points the authors describe introductory examples, also simple exploits which can be tested e.g. Well, it provides a really broad overview, but in contrast to some other more focused books it is not a real teaching book on penetration testing - in my opinion.

This is a book with over 1000 pages and it documents the effort of the authors to give a full overview over the wide spectrum of terms used in pen-test and hacking environments, steps of penetration testing, attack variants, tools, defense options, and, and. Schmid on "Hacking" (see the full reference at this post's end). Recently, I started reading in the German book of E.
