MSF Fundamentals 2017 (Part 3 of 3) – Pivoting and Automation

This is quick-hit version of part three of a three part series on Metasploit Fundamentals that I wrote to update my previous work (from 2014) on Metasploit. If you’re looking for a more hands-on/in-depth version of this article you can access training on this topic here: MSF Fundamentals – Part 3 of 3 (Pivoting and Automation) (basic_0x04)

The purpose of this article is to cover pivoting, port-forwarding, and automation to expand the reach of your tools and reduce the amount of time you spend on repetitive work.  Part one covered starting up the MSF, finding an exploit, finding a matching payload, and configuring everything up to the point of launching the exploit. Part two covered exploitation and post-exploitation modules to the point where you are comfortable with the various ways of manipulating a system after you’ve opened a session to it.  This training assumes you’re using a 2016 variant of Kali Linux and that it’s patched up to at least August 2016. If that’s true, then let’s go!
