Metasploit Payloads
This gem is a Metasploit-specific gem that contains all of the Meterpreter payloads (except for Mettle). This is made up of:
- Windows DLLs
- Java Classes
- PHP/Python Scripts
Mettle, the Native Linux / Posix payload, currently is developed at https://github.com/rapid7/mettle (to be moved here at some point?)
Installation
Given the nature of the contents of this gem, installation outside of Metasploit is not advised. To use Meterpreter, download and install Metasploit itself.
