These are a great addition to Metasploit’s coverage for testing Kubernetes environments [https://docs.metasploit.com/docs/pentesting/metasploit-guide-kubernetes.html].

LDAP Capture module Metasploit now has an LDAP capture module thanks to the work of JustAnda7 [https://github.com/JustAnda7]. This work was completed as part of the Google Summer of Code program. When the module runs it will by default require privileges to listen on port 389. The module implements a default implementation for BindRequest, SearchRequest, UnbindRequest, and will capture both plaintext credentials and NTLM hashes which can be brute-forced offline. Upon receiving a successful Bin

Direct Syscalls Support for Windows Meterpreter Direct system calls are a well-known technique that is often used to bypass EDR/AV detection. This technique is particularly useful when dynamic analysis is performed, where the security software monitors every process on the system to detect any suspicious activity. One common way to do so is to add user-land hooks on Win32 API calls, especially those commonly used by malware. Direct syscalls are a way to run system calls directly and enter kernel
