We just released Metasploit 4.6.0, so applying this week's update will get you the brand new version. While Chris has a delightful blog post of what all is new in Metasploit Pro, let's take a look at what's exciting and new between Metasploit 4.5.0 and today's update to 4.6.0.
138 new modules
First off, the hacker elves have been cranking out a ton of module content since we released 4.5.0 back in December, 2012. Between then and now, we've got 138 new modules. That's 1.1 new modules per day, including those days that other people call "weekends" and "holidays." Of those, we have 80 new exploits, 44 new auxiliary modules, and 12 new post modules.
Of course, most of the module commits don't originate with us here at Rapid7. Over this release, we have 86 distinct committers contributing to Metasploit, and only 11 of them are employed here at Rapid7. It's this overwhelming strength of the Metasploit exploit development community that keeps me super-excited to do Good Work every day. Seriously, thank you all for that. I'm getting all verklempt here.
