metasploit-payloads

Appveyor build status:

This is a unified repository for different Metasploit Framework payloads, which merges these repositories:

• C Windows Meterpreter
• Java and Android Meterpreter and Payloads
• Python and PHP Meterpreter

An alternate cross-platform C Meterpreter, called Mettle, is developed at https://github.com/rapid7/mettle

See the individual directories for meterpreter-specific README, build instructions and license details:

• C Windows/Linux Meterpreters
• Java/Android Meterpreters and Payloads

For Python and PHP Meterpreter, you can test changes to these files by symlinking the associated files to ~/.msf4/payloads/meterpreter. As an example, here is how this might look like for a Python Meterpreter edit:

mkdir ~/.msf4/payloads # If this doesn't exist already
cd ~/git/metasploit-payloads
ln -s /home/gwillcox/git/metasploit-payloads/python/meterpreter/ext_server_stdapi.py /home/gwillcox/.msf4/payloads/meterpreter/ext_server_stdapi.py
file ~/.msf4/payloads/meterpreter/ext_server_stdapi.py
       /home/gwillcox/.msf4/payloads/meterpreter/ext_server_stdapi.py: symbolic link to /home/gwillcox/git/metasploit-payloads/python/meterpreter/ext_server_stdapi.py

If things went right you should see a warning message when selecting one of the corresponding Meterpreter payloads and recieving a session:
