Weekly Metasploit Update: New Kerberos/Certificate tracing options, and multiple new modules

Metasploit released new debugging features called KerberosTicketTrace and CertificateTrace that enable detailed inspection of Kerberos tickets and certificates sent and received by modules. These tools, developed as part of a Google Summer of Code (GSoC) project, help security researchers and operators troubleshoot issues when running or developing Metasploit modules by providing visibility into protocol-level data.

Why it matters: Penetration testers and red teamers using Metasploit will benefit from faster troubleshooting when Kerberos or certificate-based exploits fail, reducing time spent debugging authentication and protocol issues during assessments.
