This module provides a persistent boot payload by creating a plist entry in current user's ~/Library/LaunchAgents directory. Whenever the user logs in, the LaunchAgent will be invoked and this dropped payload will run.

To display the available options, load the module within the Metasploit console and run the commands 'show options' or 'show advanced':
msf > use exploit/osx/local/persistence
msf exploit(persistence) > show targets
...targets...
msf exploit(persistence) > set TARGET < target-id >
msf exploit(persistence) > show options
...show and set options...
msf exploit(persistence) > exploit
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.
