Windows Gather Service Info Enumeration

Created

Description

This module will query the system for services and display name and configuration info for each returned service. It allows you to optionally search the credentials, path, or start type for a string and only return the results that match. These query operations are cumulative and if no query strings are specified, it just returns all services. NOTE: If the script hangs, windows firewall is most likely on and you did not migrate to a safe process (explorer.exe for example).

Module Options

To display the available options, load the module within the Metasploit console and run the commands 'show options' or 'show advanced':

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.
