What is encoder in Metasploit?
Metasploit has encoders which you can use to obfuscate your shellcode. They pack your payload into a self-decrypting blob of shellcode which becomes the original one when executed. These are (slightly) harder to detect as their x86 instructions are semi-randomized and the decryption key is chosen at random.
Is Meterpreter illegal?
Meterpreter is forbidden in the OSCP exam. Once we have our shellcode, we simply copy/paste it into our exploit code to replace the current payload which is in the exploit.
Is Metasploit still used?
Metasploit is publicly available as well as all the exploits and the vulnerabilities in its database. This means that a company can patch and secure its network and software accordingly to the metasploit database thus renders metasploit useless.

How to use Metasploit for exploit development?
During exploit development, you will most certainly need to generate shellcode to use in your exploit. In Metasploit, payloads can be generated from within the msfconsole. When you use a certain payload, Metasploit adds the generate, pry, and reload commands. Generate will be the primary focus of this section in learning how to use Metasploit.
What are the best features of Metasploit Framework?
One of the best feature of Metasploit Framework is that you can easily upgrade your normal command shell payload into Meterpreter payload once the system has been exploited.

How to use a reverse shell in Metasploit?

A reverse shell (also known as a connect-back) is the exact opposite: it requires the attacker to set up a listener first on his box,…
