Metasploit Penetration Testing Cookbook

Conventions

In this book, you will find a number of styles of text that distinguish between different kinds of information. Here are some examples of these styles, and an explanation of their meaning.

Code words in text are shown as follows: " The last two commands, vulns and db_autopwn are post-exploitation commands, which we will deal with in later chapters."

A block of code is set as follows:

# Register command execution options
                register_options(
                        [
                                OptString.new('USER', [ true, "The username to create",     "metasploit" ]),
                                OptString.new('PASS', [ true, "The password for this user", "metasploit" ]),
                        ], self.class)

Any command-line input or output is written as follows:

$ chmod +x framework-4.*-linux-full.run
$ sudo ./framework-4.*-linux-full.run
