targetpayloads inconsistency ?

[ilanisme]

Hey,
first of all thats a great tool really appreciate the work.
i've encountered a problem where in module 'linux/http/axis_srv_parhand_rce' when i choose one of the payloads that are returned from the function exploit.targetpayloads() i receive an exception stating that 'Invalid payload (cmd/unix/bind_netcat_gaping) for given target (1).'
i can see that it checks against self.payloads which is calling targetpayloads(self.target),
im pretty new with that library so i dont know what target is for but i assume that instead of using exploit.targetpayloads() i should use exploit.payloads? although the documentation talks about targetpayloads() and not about the property payloads
thank you.

Hi,
You're calling the wrong function. There are two function, the first one returns compatible payloads with the current target, the second one returns compatible payloads for a given target, default to 0.

    def payloads(self):
        """
        A list of compatible payloads.
        """
        #        return self.rpc.call(MsfRpcMethod.ModuleCompatiblePayloads, self.modulename)['payloads']
        return self.targetpayloads(self.target)

 def targetpayloads(self, t=0):
        """
        Returns a list of compatible payloads for a given target ID.
        Optional Keyword Arguments:
        - t : the target ID (default: 0, e.g. 'Automatic')
        """
        return self.rpc.call(MsfRpcMethod.ModuleTargetCompatiblePayloads, [self.modulename, t])['payloads']

So you're getting payloads for target 0, but your current target is 1.

>>> mod.targets
{0: 'Unix In-Memory', 1: 'Linux Dropper'}
>>> mod.target
1

You are getting the error because you're targeting a Unix In-memory exploit using a Linux Dropper payload
You have to choose your target from call mod.payloads or mod.targetpayloads(1).
