Generating payloads with MSFPC

For the past few years, we have been using tools such as the Metasploit Framework, routersploit, LinuxEnum.sh, and nmap for post-exploitation and scanning. With the growing popularity of new tools, it would be good to learn about some tools that can be used for post-exploitation. Out of the many available tools, we will be looking at MSFvenom Payload Creator (MSFPC)—a simple MSF-based payload generator in this recipe.

MSFPC is a user-friendly multiple-payload generator that can be used to generate Metasploit payloads based on user-selected options. The user doesn't need to execute the long msfvenom commands to generate payloads anymore. With MSFPC, the user can generate payloads with far fewer commands.
