TORONTO.

One of the things missing at the Black Hat Las Vegas event this year was a talk by H D Moore, creator of the open source Metasploit hacking framework and one of the most influential hackers on Earth.

Back in the summer I had emailed Moore to see what was going on – and at the time he noted he was busy with stuff (like making a weaponized attack code for Kaminsky’s DNS exploit)

Well luckily for me – he’s not too busy to make it up to SecTor which kicks off today in Toronto.

Moore is talking about – what else – Metasploit – but here’s kicker – he’s talking about Metasploit 3.2 – which is currently in development. It’s been months since Metasploit 3.1 was released and Moore has got *a few* tricks up his sleeve yet.

His preso is just about to start here – but he’s delayed – by….a/v issues with the projector.

**UPDATE** Moore just announced that Metasploit is moving to a BSD license for 3.2 which will be out any day now. Big news!
**UPDATE 2** – Auto Browser Pwn, Evil Wireless Access Point, Metasploit MITM and IPv6 attack capabilities are the other big highlights in Metasploit 3.2. I’ve got a full story that should be up soon on the main InternetNews.com with more details and quotes.
