JBOSS EAP/AS - More Deserializations? Indeed!
Community contributor Heyder Andrade [https://github.com/heyder] added in a new
module for a Java deserialization vulnerability in JBOSS EAP/AS Remoting Unified
Invoker interface for versions 6.1.0 and prior. As far as we can tell this was

DFSCoerce - Distributing more than just files
DFS (Distributed File System) is now distributing Net-NTLM credentials thanks to
Spencer McIntyre [https://github.com/zeroSteiner] with a new
auxiliary/scanner/dcerpc/dfscoerce module that is similar to PetitPotam in how
it functions. Note that unlike PetitPotam, this technique does require a normal
domain user’s credentials to work.
The following shows the workflow for targeting a 64-bit Windows Server 2019
domain controller. Metasploit is hostin

SAMR Auxiliary Module
A new SAMR auxiliary module has been added that allows users to add, lookup, and
delete computer accounts from an AD domain. This should be useful for pentesters
on engagements who need to create an AD account to gain an initial foothold into
the domain for lateral movement attacks, or who need to use this functionality
as an attack primitive.
Note when using this module that there is a standard number of computers a user
can add, so be wary that you may get STATUS_DS_MACH

Add Windows target support for the Confluence OGNL injection module
Improves the exploit/multi/http/atlassian_confluence_namespace_ognl_injection
module to support Windows server targets. This new target can be used to run
payloads in memory with Powershell using the new payload adapters or drop an
executable to disk. Once a Meterpreter session is obtained, getsystem can be
used to escalate to NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM using the RPCSS technique (#5) since

Expanding on the work of the vcenter_forge_saml_token auxiliary module,
community contributor npm-cesium137-io [https://github.com/npm-cesium137-io] has
added a new module for extracting the vmdir/vmafd certificates, the IdP keypair,
the VMCA root cert, and anything from vmafd that has a private key associated,
from an offline copy of the services database. This information can then be used

PetitPotam Improvements
Metasploit’s Ruby support has been updated to allow anonymous authentication to
SMB servers. This is notably useful while exploiting the PetitPotam
vulnerability with Metasploit, which can be used to coerce a Domain Controller
to send an authentication attempt over SMB to other machines via MS-EFSRPC
methods:

This module is pretty exciting for us because it's for a vulnerability
discovered by our very own Rapid7 researchers Jake Baines

The vulnerability allowed for attackers to leverage the "custom script"
functionality to execute arbitrary operating system commands whenever domain

Meterpreter Debugging
A consistent message Metasploit hears from users is that debugging and general
logging support could be improved. The gaps in functionality make it difficult
for users to understand what happens when things go wrong and for new and
existing developers to fix bugs and add new features. The Metasploit team has
been trying to improve this in various parts of the framework, the most recent
being Meterpreter. Meterpreter payloads now have additional debugging options
that can be
