New modules for everyone

This week’s release is packed with new module content. We have RCE modules for Car Rental System 1.0, Wordpress plugins SureTriggers, User Registration and Membership. We also have a persistence module for LINQPad software and an auxiliary module for POWERCOM UPSMON PRO. We have also added support for 32-bit architectures to our execute-assembly post module, which now supports injection of both 64-bit and 32-bit .NET assembly binaries.

Enhancements and features (3)

• #20098 from smashery - Adds support for 32-bit execute-assembly, allowing injection of 64-bit or 32-bit .NET assembly.
• #20126 from bcoles - This adds a Linux post-exploitation method to check Yama's ptrace_scope setting. It removes a round trip required to obtain the scope value making modules that require knowing it to run slightly faster.
• #20173 from adfoster-r7 - Updates the web crawling modules to support HTTP logging.

Bugs fixed (8)

• #20010 from lafried - This fixes missing Powershell signature, when SSH is trying to identify the platform.
• #20111 from cdelafuente-r7 - Fixes an issue that prevented failed exploit attempts to be registered in the database correctly.
• #20118 from zeroSteiner - This fixes the target option for smb_to_ldap module. The option RELAY_TARGETS is now outdated, RHOSTS should be used instead.
• #20120 from bcoles - This fixes typos across many Windows post-exploit modules and adds missing metadata.
• #20128 from bcoles - This fixes an IP address assignment in the auxiliary/bnat/bnat_router module.
• #20142 from L-codes - Fixes a crash when running unknown commands in msfconsole when using specific versions of Ruby and bundler.
• #20156 from bcoles - This fix typos and rubocop violations inside the post modules.
• #20181 from bwatters-r7 - This fixes an issue in Metasploit's Wordpress login functionality that would cause it to fail for certain target configurations.
