Metasploit Pro 5.1 introduces several major capabilities for red-team operations. The headline feature is full Malleable C2 profile support, allowing operators to reshape Meterpreter HTTP(S) traffic to mimic legitimate services across all Meterpreter flavors (Windows, Linux, Java, Python, PHP) — all accessible through the Pro UI without command-line knowledge. The payload selector has been overhauled with platform and stage filtering. Service Hierarchy Tracking now exposes parent-child service relationships directly in the Discovered Services table with inline editing and cross-column search. The Network Topology view gains a rich side panel showing sessions, loot, credentials, modules run, and tags per host, plus four new graph filters (bruteforce, tag, username, module). The Discovered Vulnerabilities table has been fully rewritten with inline editing and preserved InsightVM/Nexpose integration. MITRE ATT&CK technique filtering is now available for module searches. The release is powered by Metasploit Framework 6.5.
