Creation of transports for switching is done a little differently now. But the transports do cycle correctly now when things fail, each with their respective retry times.
Lots of transported related things were in the core library which didn't make any sense given that the only thing that needed it was metsrv. This moves the functionality out into metsrv, reformats stuff and gets rid of some dead code.
TODO: Make this work with POSIX.
This changeset fixes an issue with POSIX failing to keep track of loaded
extensions properly. The timeout calcs for waiting were trying to be too
smart and hence were simplified.
Also added another flush when reconnecting so that the body of the
second instance of metsrv is ignored by the POSIX side. In future, when
stageless meterpreter works with POSIX, we won't have to do this.
Currently, the select timeout on the server socket is 100 ns, meaning that
while idle, the process can wake up 100k times per second. This switches the
timeout to 0.5 second, reducing the idle CPU usage and seemingly increasing
the reliability of posix meterpreter as well.
Tested with various test post test modules without failures.
This commit includes code which will allow for HTTP/S payload URIs to be hot-patched by the server without losing the UUID information. This was put in so that the stageless payloads can be used over and over again and not have issues with session URIs colliding.
The mechanism used for validation of the SSL cert string was the same as for many of the other global replacement options. However, the string value that was used for checking was also the same. The result was that the patch mechanism wasn't patching the right instance of the string.
DERP!
Why this hit stageless only I'm really not sure.
Updated the code so that the TCP stuff is moved into its own file and doesn't pollute the main server file with stuff that is specific to TCP transports.
Updated the winhttp functionality in the same way so that functionality is properly segregated.
Modified the global parameters so that they're part of a structure that can be passed around.
Added a stack of documnetation as well.
This commit just adds the braces around single-line blocks as per our "standard". This is important, especially in the case where those single lines contain macros which could expand to multiple lines.
Also added the use of the group packet functionality to make the search result code a little easier on the eye.
Querying of the status of SSL cert verification is now possible. This commit allows for this to be enabled and disabled on the fly.
Also include some code tidy/refactoring.
