Description

This module detects the Modbus service, tested on a SAIA PCD1.M2 system. Modbus is a clear text protocol used in common SCADA systems, developed originally as a serial-line (RS232) async protocol, and later transformed to IP, which is called ModbusTCP.

Time is precious, so I don’t want to do something manually that I can automate. Leveraging the Metasploit Framework when automating any task keeps us from having to re-create the wheel as we can use the existing libraries and focus our efforts where it matters.
