Metasploit Research Projects

Metasploit Decloaking Engine - The goal of this project is to enumerate and demonstrate the many methods in which network anonymizers can be bypassed. The current incarnation focuses on the web browser and uses a combination of Java, Flash, and DNS to detect the true origin of a given web request.

Rogue Network Link Detection - This project investigates methods for detecting unauthorized network links on internal networks. An example tool and white paper is provided describing how this can accomplished.

Metasploit Anti-Forensics - This project, created by Vinnie Liu, and maintained by the community, seeks to develop tools and techniques for removing forensic evidence from computer systems. This project includes a number of tools, including Timestomp, Slacker, and SAM Juicer, many of which have been integrated in the Metasploit Framework.
