Meterpreter Debugging
A consistent message Metasploit hears from users is that debugging and general
logging support could be improved. The gaps in functionality make it difficult
for users to understand what happens when things go wrong and for new and
existing developers to fix bugs and add new features. The Metasploit team has
been trying to improve this in various parts of the framework, the most recent
being Meterpreter. Meterpreter payloads now have additional debugging options
that can be

Capture Plugin
Capturing credentials is a critical and early phase in the playbook of many
offensive security testers. Metasploit has facilitated this for years with
protocol-specific modules all under the auxiliary/server/capture. Users can
start and configure each of these modules individually, but now the capture
plugin can streamline the process. The capture plugin can easily start 13
different services (17 including SSL enabled versions) on the same listening IP
address including remote int

This week, our very own Christophe De La Fuente
[https://github.com/cdelafuente-r7] added an important update
[https://github.com/rapid7/metasploit-framework/pull/15924] to the existing
Windows Secret Dump module. It is now able to dump secrets from Active
Directory, which will be very useful for Metasploit users. This new feature uses
the Directory Replication Service through RPC to retrieve data such as SIDs,
password history, Domain user NTLM hashes
