Windows Pulse Secure Connect Client Saved Password Extractor
Description
This module extracts and decrypts saved Pulse Secure Connect Client passwords from the Windows Registry. This module can only access credentials created by the user that the Meterpreter session is running as. Note that this module cannot link the password to a username unless the Meterpreter sessions is running as SYSTEM. This is because the username associated with a password is saved in 'C:\ProgramData\Pulse Secure\ConnectionStore\[SID].dat', which is only readable by SYSTEM. Note that for enterprise deployment, this username is almost always the domain username.

Module Options
To display the available options, load the module within the Metasploit console and run the commands 'show options' or 'show advanced':
- Collect and share all the information you need to conduct a successful and efficient penetration test
- Simulate complex attacks against your systems and users
- Test your defenses to make sure they’re ready
- Automate Every Step of Your Penetration Test
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.
