Recently I have been working more and more on my pentest plugin for Metasploit doing bug fixes and trying to improve some of the current areas of it. I added the Auto Exploit plugin to it for exploit automation and added some commands to aid in doing enumeration and discovery thru a pivot.
I was talking with the guys in Defensive Intuition and Black Hills Defensive Security and one of the areas they wanted to see me cover in the plugin was being able to quickly move enumerating and scanning other targets when they got a Meterpreter session on a clients network. So I added 2 commands to help with this to the plugin.
Lets start with a session that is connected to a host that is behind NAT:
msf > sessions Active sessions =============== Id Type Information Connection -- ---- ----------- ---------- 1 meterpreter x86/win32 VICTIMLAB\Administrator @ WIN2K3LAB01 192.168.1.100:4444 -> 192.168.1.138:49323 (10.10.10.2) msf >
lets start by loading the plugin
msf > load pentest

Discovery Commands
==================
Command Description
------- -----------
discover_db Run discovery modules against current hosts in the database.
network_discover Performs a portscan and enumeration of services found for non pivot networks.
pivot_network_discover Performs enumeration of networks available to a specified Meterpreter session.
show_session_networks Enumerate the networks one could pivot thru Meterpreter in the active sessions.
. . . .
The commands we have available are:
* discover_db - this command will go thru the hosts that are present in the database and will run a set of modules to enumerate and gather information from the services that have been detected on those host. One can provide a range of host to limit the discovery and SMB settings for the SMB modules that will be ran against hosts.
* network_discovery - will run the nmap scanner against a given CIDR, it will determine the ports that are used by Metasploit auxiliary and exploit modules and use those if none are specified and after running the scan it will run additional discovery modules to further enumerate and gather information from those services.
* pivot_network_discover - This command will enumerate all interfaces and routes on a given Windows Meterpreter session, it will create routes to the found networks thru the session specified, it will determine which of the enumerated networks are directly connected to the host or are remote so as to determine the best way to run detection of hosts, it will do a ARP Sweep if the network is directly connected since this provides the most accuracy and if the network is a remote one it will execute a ping scan against it, it will execute if specified a TCP and UDP port scan against the hosts it discovered, if a port list is not provided it will auto generate one from the existing auxiliary and exploit modules currently available in addition to adding some additional common ones, if specified it will launch discovery modules to further enumerate the services found.
* show_session_networks - will list the networks available thru Windows Meterpreter Sessions.
Lets start by listing the networks available thru a session. Lets first look at the options available for the show_session_networks command:
msf > show_session_networks -h
This command will show the networks that can be routed thru a Meterpreter session.
OPTIONS:
-h Help Message.
-s Sessions to enumerate networks against. Example or .
Now lets list the networks available:
msf > show_session_networks -s all Network Netmask Session ------- ------- ------- 10.10.10.0 255.255.255.0 1
Now that we know the networks connected to the session we can check the options we have available to the command pivot_network_discover :
msf > pivot_network_discover -h
OPTIONS:
-D SMB Domain for discovery(optional).
-P SMB Password for discovery(optional).
-U SMB Username for discovery(optional).
-d Run Framework discovery modules against found hosts.
-h Help Message.
-p Port list. Provide a comma separated list of port and/or ranges to TCP scan.
-s Session to do discovery of networks and hosts.
-t Perform TCP port scan of hosts discovered.
-u Perform UDP scan of hosts discovered.
-v Be verbose and show pending actions.
Lets see what information we have in our current workspace for hosts, services and notes:
msf > hosts Hosts ===== address mac name os_name os_flavor os_sp purpose info comments ------- --- ---- ------- --------- ----- ------- ---- -------- msf > services Services ======== host port proto name state info ---- ---- ----- ---- ----- ---- msf > notes msf >
Lets run a discovery thru the current session we have:

One thing that we have to keep in mind scanning thru a pivot is slow, that is why I decided to go with the list of generated ports since these will provide me the best chances to leverage the tools and modules in the framework. For large networks I recommend also using the -v option to see how many scanner jobs are pending.
Now that we finished the discovery lets look at the hosts, services and notes we now have:

You can download the latest version from my GitHub repository at https://github.com/darkoperator/Metasploit-Plugins/blob/master/pentest.rb Also I got a request from a friend to turn the discovery command in to a post module so I started work on that also. I hope you find these new commands useful.
