Metasploit LLC released version 3.0 of the Metasploit Framework (MSF), the popular penetration testing project, late last month. Version 3.0 is a complete rewrite of the previous tools using primarily the Ruby programming language; versions 1 and 2 were written primarily in Perl. Also new are an experimental GUI, and perhaps the crowning jewel of the release, the db_autopwn module, which automates exploit discovery and execution.
MSF is designed for automated penetration testing. To that end, it
keeps a stable of exploits known to work against specific targets:
various releases of Windows, Linux, BSD, generic Unix, and Mac OS. It
also runs on many of those same platforms, and has even been seen on a
Nokia N800 handheld. Read more at Linux.com
