Description

This module uses an anonymous-bind LDAP connection to dump data from the vmdir service in VMware vCenter Server version 6.7 prior to the 6.7U3f update, only if upgraded from a previous release line, such as 6.0 or 6.5. If the bind username and password are provided (BIND_DN and BIND_PW options), these credentials will be used instead of attempting an anonymous bind.

Time is precious, so I don’t want to do something manually that I can automate. Leveraging the Metasploit Framework when automating any task keeps us from having to re-create the wheel as we can use the existing libraries and focus our efforts where it matters.
