LESSON 85: Basic Exploitation with Metasploit, Kali and Metasploitable

Exploit your first vulnerability with Metasploit! We scan Metasploitable with db_nmap, select the vsftpd backdoor exploit, configure RHOSTS and payload options, launch the exploit, and gain root access. This is real exploitation from start to finish in 4 minutes. Learn the complete Metasploit exploitation workflow: scan the target to identify vulnerable services, search for relevant exploits, select and configure the exploit module, set RHOSTS (target IP), verify payload selection, launch the exploit, and confirm root access. We demonstrate the famous vsftpd 2.3.4 backdoor and show a second exploit on Samba for multiple attack vectors. TOPICS COVERED: Scanning with db_nmap -sV for service enumeration, analyzing results with services and hosts commands, searching for exploits with search command, selecting vsftpd_234_backdoor exploit module, understanding exploit options with show options, setting RHOSTS target IP address, viewing compatible payloads, launching exploitation with exploit command, confirming root access with whoami and id, exploring the compromised system, managing sessions with background and sessions -i, trying multiple exploits on same target, Samba usermap_script as second attack vector. SETUP: Kali Linux, Metasploitable 2, both on same network EXPLOITS DEMONSTRATED: - exploit/unix/ftp/vsftpd_234_backdoor - exploit/multi/samba/usermap_script NEXT LESSON: Day 86 - Meterpreter Advanced Post-Exploitation 🌐 JOIN: https://t.me/+dvi_feSCRCJmNjJk #cybersecurity #metasploit #exploitation #penetrationtesting #vsftpd #kalilinux #metasploitable #ethicalhacking #msfconsole #rootaccess #backdoor #infosec #redteam #pentest #hacking
