msfconsole
The msfconsole is probably the most popular interface to the MSF. It provides an "all-in-one" centralized console and allows you efficient access to virtually all of the options available in the Metasploit Framework. Msfconsole may seem intimidating at first, but once you learn the syntax of the commands you will learn to appreciate the power of utilizing this interface.
The msfconsole interface will work on Windows with the 3.3 release, however users of version 3.2 will need to either manually install the Framework under Cygwin, along with patching the Ruby installation, or access the console emulator via the included web or GUI components.
Benefits of the msfconsole:
- It is the only supported way to access most of the features within Metasploit.
- Provides a console-based interface to the framework
- Contains the most features and is the most stable MSF interface
- Full readline support, tabbing, and command completion
- Execution of external commands in msfconsole is possible:
msf > ping -c 1 192.168.1.2
[*] exec: ping -c 1 192.168.1.2

tab completion
One of the more useful features of msfconsole is tab completion. With the wide array of modules available, it can be difficult to remember the exact name and path of the particular module you wish to make use of. As with most other shells, entering what you know and pressing 'Tab' will present you with a list of options available to you or auto-complete the string if there is only one option.msf > use exploit/windows/smb/ms

"show" Command
Entering 'show' at the msfconsole prompt will display every module within Metasploit.
msf > show

There are a number of 'show' commands you can use but the ones you will use most frequently are 'show auxiliary', 'show exploits', and 'show payloads'.
Executing 'show auxiliary' will display a listing of all of the available auxiliary modules within Metasploit. Auxiliary modules include scanners, denial of service modules, fuzzers, and more.
msf > show auxiliary

...snip...
Naturally, 'show exploits' will be the command you are most interested in running since at its core, Metasploit is all about exploitation. Run 'show exploits' to get a listing of all exploits contained in the framework. msf > show exploits
Exploits

---- -----------
aix/rpc_ttdbserverd_realpath ToolTalk rpc.ttdbserverd _tt_internal_realpath Buffer Overflow

Running 'show payloads' will display all of the different payloads for all platforms available within Metasploit.msf > show payloads

As you can see, there are a lot of payloads available. Fortunately, when you are in the context of a particular exploit, running 'show payloads' will only display the payloads that are compatible with that particular exploit. For instance, if it is a Windows exploit, you will not be shown the Linux payloads.msf exploit(ms08_067_netapi) > show payloads

If you have selected a specific module, you can issue the 'show options' command to display which settings are available and/or required for that specific module.msf exploit(ms08_067_netapi) > show options
Module options:

If you aren't certain whether an operating system is vulnerable to a particular exploit, run the 'show targets' command from within the context of an exploit module to see which targets are supported. msf exploit(ms08_067_netapi) > show targets
Exploit targets:

"search" Command
The msfconsole includes an extensive regular-expression based search functionality. If you have a general idea of what you are looking for you can search for it via 'search

"set" Command
The 'set' command is used to configure the options and settings of the module you are currently working with. msf auxiliary(ms09_001_write) > set RHOST 192.168.1.1

A recently added feature in Metasploit is the ability to set an encoder to use at run-time. This is particularly useful in exploit development when you aren't quite certain as to which payload encoding methods will work with an exploit.

"check" command
There aren't many exploits that support it, but there is also a 'check' option that will check to see if a target is vulnerable to a particular exploit instead of actually exploiting it. msf exploit(ms04_045_wins) > show options
Module options:
Name Current Setting Required Description
---- --------------- -------- -----------
RHOST 192.168.1.114 yes The target address
RPORT 42 yes The target port

msf exploit(ms04_045_wins) > check
[-] Check failed: The connection was refused by the remote host (192.168.1.114:42)
Setting Global Variables
In order to save a lot of typing during a pentest, you can set global variables within msfconsole. You can do this with the 'setg' command. Once these have been set, you can use them in as many exploits and auxiliary modules as you like. You can also save them for use the next time your start msfconsole. However, the pitfall is forgetting you have saved globals, so always check your options before you 'run' or 'exploit'. Conversely, you can use the 'unsetg' command to unset a global variable. In the examples that follow, variables are entered in all-caps (ie: LHOST), but Metasploit is case-insensitive so it is not necessary to do so.msf > setg LHOST 192.168.1.101
LHOST => 192.168.1.101
msf > setg RHOSTS 192.168.1.0/24
RHOSTS => 192.168.1.0/24
msf > setg RHOST 192.168.1.136
RHOST => 192.168.1.136
msf > save
Saved configuration to: /root/.msf3/config
msf >
"exploit/run" Commands
When launching an exploit, you issue the 'exploit' command whereas if you are using an auxiliary module, the proper usage is 'run' although 'exploit' will work as well. msf auxiliary(ms09_001_write) > run
Attempting to crash the remote host...
datalenlow=65535 dataoffset=65535 fillersize=72
rescue
datalenlow=55535 dataoffset=65535 fillersize=72

datalenlow=45535 dataoffset=65535 fillersize=72
rescue
datalenlow=35535 dataoffset=65535 fillersize=72
rescue
datalenlow=25535 dataoffset=65535 fillersize=72
rescue
"back" Command
Once you have finished working with a particular module, or if you inadvertently select the wrong module, you can issue the 'back' command to move out of the current context. This, however is not required. Just as you can in commercial routers, you can switch modules from within other modules. As a reminder, variables will only carry over if they are set globally. msf auxiliary(ms09_001_write) > back
msf >
"resource" Command
Some attacks such as Karmetasploit use a resource file that you can load through the msfconsole using the 'resource' command. These files are a basic scripting for msfconsole. It runs the commands in the file in sequence. Later on we will discuss how, outside of Karmetasploit, that can be very useful. msf > resource karma.rc
resource> load db_sqlite3
[-]
[-] The functionality previously provided by this plugin has been
[-] integrated into the core command set. Use the new 'db_driver'
[-] command to use a database driver other than sqlite3 (which
[-] is now the default). All of the old commands are the same.
[-]
[-] Failed to load plugin from /pentest/exploits/framework3/plugins/db_sqlite3: Deprecated plugin
resource> db_create /root/karma.db
[*] The specified database already exists, connecting
[*] Successfully connected to the database
[*] File: /root/karma.db
resource> use auxiliary/server/browser_autopwn
resource> setg AUTOPWN_HOST 10.0.0.1
AUTOPWN_HOST => 10.0.0.1
"irb" Command
Running the 'irb' command will drop you into ruby scripting mode where you can issue commands and create scripts on the fly.
msf > irb
[*] Starting IRB shell...
>> puts "Hello, metasploit!"
Hello, metasploit!
Very Informative. Thanks for Sharing . Keep it up.
