Metasploit Cookbook

A cookbook that's useful for spinning up a quick Metasploit instance or configuring you're metasploit development environment.

Requirements

Platform

The following systems are supported and tested on:

• Mac OS X Mountain Lion and above (10.8+) + Command Line Tools.
• Ubuntu Precise Pangolin and above(12.04+)

A rule of thumb is that if you're running a flavor of linux/unix your system is already supported. If you're running Windows, feel free to tweak some recipes to add support by editing the case-when node[:platform] blocks and adding when 'windows'.

Mac OS X

Installing the Xcode Command Line Tools for OS X.

See the requirements from mxcl/homebrew

Vagrant

• Vagrant 1.2+
• Vagrant Berkshelf 1.3.2+
• Vagrant Omnibus 1.1.0+

Usage

Chef

Just include recipe[metasploit::default] in your node's run list.

Vagrant

To create a machine with vagrant ensure you've run the following commands after installing vagrant from vagrantup.com:

# Check if you've already installed the necessary plugins:
vagrant plugin list
# If vagrant-berkshelf (1.3.2+) and vagrant-omnibus (1.1.0) aren't installed:
vagrant plugin install vagrant-berkshelf
vagrant plugin install vagrant-omnibus

Once you have the necessary plugins you simply want to run

vagrant up
