The Social-Engineer Toolkit (SET) v1.5 “Convergence Edition” has been released.

The Social-Engineer Toolkit (SET) v1.5 “Convergence Edition” has officially been released. This release adds new Metasploit client-side exploits and more granularity around the SET interactive shell. One of the main accomplishments in this version is the cross-compatibility of the SET interactive shell which now supports Windows, OSX, and *NIX. Interesting enough it does smart detection based on platform and leverages the same codebase when triggering payloads. Overall this has been several months of development getting the interactive shell to a point to where it’s stable and supports multiple operating systems.
In addition to the OSX compatibilities, several new features were added to the interactive shell. The first is persistence, the SET interactive shell will spawn a custom written service, install it, and then spawn you a shell back every 30 minutes. Useful for when on a penetration test and your connection drops, you still will receive connections back every 30 minutes. In addition to that, “clear” and “cls” have been added for clear screen as well as “reboot now” and “removepersistence”. A full changelog change be found here:
