Episode: #509: AI + Metasploit = Terrifyingly Easy Hacking is here (demo)
Description: In this ethical lab demo, David Bombal and Kyle Winters connect Claude (LLM) to Metasploit through an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server to automate real attacks. Watch AI perform recon, generate a risk report, and execute VSFTPD backdoor, EternalBlue (SMBv1), and UnrealIRCD—dropping benign files on Linux and Windows with simple prompts.
Educational use only on intentionally vulnerable VMs. Do not attack systems you don’t own or lack permission to test.
What you’ll see
• How MCP bridges an AI to real tools (Metasploit RPC)
• AI-driven scanning + auto security report (services, versions, risks)
• Prompted exploits: VSFTPD, EternalBlue, UnrealIRCD
• Why this lowers ba...
