During October 2025, Michael MacFadden contributed to the rapid7/metasploit-framework repository by adding ARCH_AARCH64 (ARM64) support to the Linux Dropper exploit module. This work enabled the framework to deliver ARM64 payloads, broadening its applicability to modern ARM-based Linux environments. Michael approached the task by integrating architecture-aware payload selection and augmenting module logic to support cross-architecture exploitation. The implementation relied on Ruby and leveraged skills in exploit development, penetration testing, and security testing. By focusing on disciplined change management and code quality, Michael’s contribution enhanced Metasploit’s testing coverage and realism for security assessments targeting contemporary ARM64 systems.
