Next, let us assume we want to import a Nmap scan of a host into our Database's Workspace to understand the target better. We can use the db_import command for this. After the import is complete, we can check the presence of the host's information in our database by using the hosts and services commands. Note that the .xml file type is preferred for db_import.

msf6 > db_export -h
Usage:
db_export -f <format> [filename]
Format can be one of: xml, pwdump
[-] No output file was specified
msf6 > db_export -f xml backup.xml
msf6 > creds -h
With no sub-command, list credentials. If an address range is
given, show only credentials with logins on hosts within that
range.
Usage - Listing credentials:
creds [filter options] [address range]
Usage - Adding credentials:
creds add uses the following named parameters.
user : Public, usually a username
password : Private, private_type Password.
ntlm : Private, private_type NTLM Hash.
Postgres : Private, private_type Postgres MD5
ssh-key : Private, private_type SSH key, must be a file path.
hash : Private, private_type Nonreplayable hash
jtr : Private, private_type John the Ripper hash type.
realm : Realm,
realm-type: Realm, realm_type (domain db2db sid pgdb rsync wildcard), defaults to domain.
Examples: Adding
# Add a user, password and realm
creds add user:admin password:notpassword realm:workgroup
# Add a user and password
creds add user:guest password:'guest password'
# Add a password
creds add password:'password without username'
# Add a user with an NTLMHash
creds add user:admin ntlm:E2FC15074BF7751DD408E6B105741864:A1074A69B1BDE45403AB680504BBDD1A
# Add a NTLMHash

# Add a Postgres MD5
creds add user:postgres postgres:md5be86a79bf2043622d58d5453c47d4860
# Add a user with an SSH key
creds add user:sshadmin ssh-key:/path/to/id_rsa
# Add a user and a NonReplayableHash
creds add user:other hash:d19c32489b870735b5f587d76b934283 jtr:md5
# Add a NonReplayableHash
creds add hash:d19c32489b870735b5f587d76b934283
