Client Side Attacks with Metasploit Express

Today the team over at Rapid7 updated Metasploit Express today.

This inspired me to play around with the application and checked out the modules.

I know some of the fun of Metasploit is Client Side Attacks.  I figured I would test one of the modules out.  The tough part was choosing which module to use.

Lucky for me, Metasploit rates the exploits and I found one rated 5 starts.  Signed Applet Social Engineering Code Exec.

Time to fire up the browser and go to the link the exploit was waiting on.  It looks like a pop up... do I click? 

and the trap has been set... 

 

The code executed and showed me I have 1 session loaded.

Now normally when using the framework, I would be loading extensions to get some hashes and other goodies.

This time I hit a button.  Click.  Metasploit Express returned a picture of my desktop and my password hashes.

 

 

You can get a 7 day demo of the application over at http://www.rapid7.com/contact/metasploit-express-contact.jsp
