User Facing Segmentation Fault in Metasploit Exploitation Task 6
CybersecurityPenetrationTestingMetasploitExploitation
The user is working on Task 6 of the Metasploit: Exploitation room on TryHackMe. They generated an ELF payload, transferred it to the target VM using wget, and set up a handler in the AttackBox. When executing the payload on the target VM, it crashes with a segmentation fault after a few seconds, and the handler reports the command shell session was closed. The issue persists even after following online walkthroughs.
