Module Msf::Handler::ReverseTcp
In: lib/msf/core/handler/reverse_tcp.rb

This module implements the reverse TCP handler. This means that it listens on a port waiting for a connection until either one is established or it is told to abort.

This handler depends on having a local host and port to listen on.
