Chapter 11 shows some elementary ways an attacker can gain an initial foothold on a network using active content in a browser or some simple malware generated through msfconsole. The Metasploit package also includes msfvenom, a tool that can be used to create more sophisticated malware. A limitation of msfvenom is that the malware it generates is often caught by modern antivirus products. Veil-Evasion can be used to craft malware that is not usually detected by antivirus.
