Summary0005391: armitage will not "find attacks" properly
Description

armitage will not "find attacks" properly. To recreate the issue Here is what happens in it's simplest form.
I open armitage, i scan a network with the nmap scan "tcp no ping" (but it happens no matter how you run a scan or what scan you use) i enter I.P range 71.xxx.xxx.xxx/24 and let the scan run. It completes and a popup states to "click find attacks" as usual. Now when I click "find attacks" instead of seeing the popup run a exploit check and a bar progress from left to right in the popup, It skips rite to the end stating attacks have been found but it seems as if no search occurred at all and no targets on my board have a attacks tab. I ran the scan on my lab as well which I know has vulnerable boxes so that is how I confirmed the bug. I also this morning build 2 kali boxes that were not customized besides one of them having bleeding edge repos, I wanted to test this fully before bringing it to the attention of the bug tracker board. This is a issue across the board and every scan I run on all boxes produces the same results . Hopefully this was enough info to help fix the issue

Steps To Reproduce

simply open armitage and run a scan (nmap or msf) on any network . When it's done click find attacks

Additional Information

I checked this bug on a custom built kali box, regular kali box and a kali box with bleeding repos and it is a issue across the board

I am currently using metasploit 5.0.16 and the issue is still in full effect

Not sure if this actually will help , and I feel it has nothing to do with the issue. But just in case, I do not run Gnome like the majority of the planet. I am running K.D.E

There are a few forks of armitage on GitHub with patches past what armitage's main repo has. Unfortunately, I haven't had time to look through all of them. One of them may have a patch to support msf5, without an open pull request just yet. e.g. https://github.com/kimocoder/armitage

I checked the forks on GiHtub. There are some patches we don't have in Kali. But they are not for msf5.
I tested them even so and I still have the issue.

The issue appears to rely on the ranking of exploits. Selecting poor or manually adding low to preferences you will get it to function. This all smells of a difference in db structure changes or/and something related to new postgresql and rpc. I have done clean ant, rebuilt from original with changes but check changes in msf database since this tool simply synchs it.

I have the same issue. Recreating db does not fix this. Is there a workaround ? Armitage has been useless since April updates.

See nafwa03’s comment for a workaround until we get this fixed @gromek82

Here's the upstream ticket FWIW, nothing new compared to the discussion here so far. And no sign of upstream activity either: https://github.com/rsmudge/armitage/issues/224

I'm pretty confident that major or minor issues with metasploit and armitage are the postgresql binding to localhost. That could be a deep or non-deep problem but its my two cents..

I think i found a work around from this issue...
On Armitage - Go to set exploit rank and change to POOR
Try to find attacks...you will see this working now..

Please let me know if this works for you

Yes, as noted by Nafwa03, that does work.
