In case it takes too long to get a report, the method will give up
checking after one hour. The user can still manually check the report
from the analysis link given earlier.
[SeeRM #8733] This a tool that uses VirusTotal's public API to submit
a malware sample for analysis. As an offensive tool developer, this
would provide a convenient way to check and see how AVs react to
something we write.
Also, enforce binary encoding like the other Metasploit tools.
This opens the door to fixing files that have things that could be fixed
programmatically.
[SeeRM #8497]
Instead of just relying on a filename of *.rb, use the file utility to
determine file type.
For systems that lack lack 'which' and 'file', fall back to filename
matching.
This is useful for retabbing things like 'msfconsole' that don't have a
.rb extension.
Local backups are generally not needed since you can just git checkout
old versions anyway before committing. It was nice to have during dev
but generally shouldn't be done now.
This signals a move to allowing for normal Ruby indentation (2 space
soft tabs). This change will check files for indentation of spaces or of
tabs, since we don't want to fail out all modules quite yet.
For more, see
https://github.com/rapid7/metasploit-framework/wiki/Indentation-Standards
where all details of the conversion plan will be documented in order to
minimize the amount of whitespace conflict we are sure to encounter over
this conversion.
Usage: tools/dev/retab.rb directory
will retab with 2-width spaces rather than tabs for indentation.
This utility should be used by the @tabassassin account when it's
unleashed on the Metasploit code base in order to make git blame a
little easier to spot. (diffs should use -b or -w to avoid seeing
@tabassassin's changes)
