Metasploit Wrap-Up 04/03/2026

Additional Adapters and More Modules This week, we added a whole new bunch of HTTP/HTTPS-based CMD payloads for X64 and X86 versions of Windows. The additional breadth of selectable payloads and delivery techniques allows users new options to tailor the attack workflow for their environment. This was contributed by bwatters-r7 . Adding new architectures for adapted payloads is surprisingly easy and something a first-time contributor might want to look into! New modules added to Metasploit Framework also allow for targeting FreeScout and Grav CMS, both of which result in remote code execution. These modules were contributed by Chocapikk and x1o3 respectively. Thanks! Thanks to g0tmi1k , Metasploit Framework now also includes an exploit module, multi/http/os_cmd_exec, which allows for targeting generic HTTP command execution vulnerabilities where user-supplied input is directly passed to system execution functions via an HTTP request. This can result in a Meterpreter shell on the remote target. To round this week off, we have a new persistence technique on Windows, thanks to Nayeraneru , which abuses the HKCU\Environment\UserInitMprLogonScript registry value to execute a payload at user logon.
