virusz Posted August 3, 2006 Report Posted August 3, 2006 Metasploit 3.0 is the next generation of the Metasploit Framework. It is written in the Ruby programming language and is a complete rewrite of the 2.0 branch. The Metasploit 2.0 branch drastically reduced exploit development time and promoted code re-use between similar exploit modules. The extensible model through which payloads, encoders, no-op generators, and exploits can be integrated has made it possible to use the Metasploit Framework as an outlet for cutting-edge exploitation research.In this light, the 3.0 branch continues to evolve the field of exploitation research and exploitation frameworks in general. The primary goals of the 3.0 branch are listed below:* Improve automation of exploitation through scripting* Simplify the process of writing an exploit* Increase code re-use between exploits* Improve and generically integrate evasion techniques* Support automated network discovery and event correlation through recon modules* Continue to provide a friendly outlet for cutting edge exploitation technologyLinux, BSD, Mac OS X, Windows Cygwin[url]http://www.metasploit.com/projects/Framework/msf3/download.html?Release=framework-3.0-alpha-r3.tar.gz[/url]Windows 2000/XP/2003 (without Cygwin)[url]http://www.metasploit.com/projects/Framework/msf3/download.html?Release=framework-3.0-beta-1.exe[/url]Web interface:[url]http://metasploit.com:55555/[/url] Quote
