Large-Scale Framework Modernization and Cleanup (9-Part Series)

Overview

This comprehensive pull request series represents a significant modernization and cleanup effort across the entire Metasploit Framework codebase. The changes span nine coordinated parts, focusing on improving code organization, maintainability, documentation, and preparing for future Python migration.

Key Components

1. Code Reorganization and Cleanup

  • Extensive reorganization of legacy modules, particularly in windows/ftp/, windows/http/, and windows/browser/ directories
  • Refactoring of exploit, auxiliary, and post-exploitation modules
  • Restructuring of core framework components and libraries
  • Cleanup of outdated code and improved file organization

2. Python Migration Infrastructure (Part 6)

  • Implementation of Ruby-to-Python migration analysis tools and scripts
  • Creation of Python framework scaffolding and helper classes
  • Addition of migration tracking and documentation
  • Preparation of legacy modules for conversion

3. Core Framework Enhancements

  • Updates to protocol implementations (Kerberos, LDAP, SMB)
  • Improvements to payload generators and handlers
  • Enhanced credential handling and authentication mechanisms
  • Modifications to data service components
  • Updates to session handling and core utilities

4. Module Improvements

  • Updates across multiple module types:
    • Exploit modules (Windows, Linux, Unix, embedded systems)
    • Auxiliary scanners and utilities
    • Post-exploitation modules
    • Payload and encoder components
  • Enhanced functionality for authentication bypass, RCE, and privilege escalation modules

5. Documentation Overhaul

  • Comprehensive updates to module documentation
  • New markdown files for usage guides and technical details
  • Enhanced API documentation
  • Improved code comments and descriptions
  • Updated configuration guides

6. Testing and Infrastructure

  • Updates to test specifications and acceptance tests
  • Modified build system configurations
  • Enhanced development scripts
  • Updated project dependencies
  • Improved test coverage and infrastructure

Impact

This large-scale update represents a strategic improvement to the Metasploit Framework's codebase, setting the foundation for future Python migration while enhancing current functionality, maintainability, and user documentation. The changes maintain backward compatibility while modernizing the framework's structure and capabilities.

Implements comprehensive migration of Ruby modules to Python across the codebase:
- Adds migration framework, infrastructure and test scripts
- Converts exploit and auxiliary modules to Python
- Updates supporting documentation and libraries
- Relocates legacy modules to new locations
- Includes verification and direct migration execution tools

This change represents the complete second phase of Python migration efforts across 9 sequential parts.
