Metasploit Wrapup: 10/26/18
We got to hit the build button three times this week. It's not something that we
normally do, since the Metasploit release each week triggers automatically. But
it's been such a week of surprise vulnerabilities and improvements that it made
sense to get a few extra builds out the door. So, Metasploit this week jumps
from 4.14.18 to 4.17.21. Look for it during your next Metasploit romp.

Check Yourself Before You Wreck Yourself
Even if you're a pro sleuth who can sniff out a vulnerability on even the most
hardened of networks, it's always nice to be have some added validation that
your attack is going to be successful. That's why it's always valuable to have a
solid "check" method available to verify that you're barking up the right tree.
