Assessment
This issue has not been assessed yet.
Description
At the moment the PHP Meterpreter returns a different value for machine_id as per this comment. The machine_id code on posix should do one of the following:
- Sort the list of entries in
/dev/disk/by-id/before selecting the first one. - Have some other way of making sure that the chosen entry from
/dev/disk/by-id/is consistent. - Use a completely different way of getting something unique off the machine that works consistently in each Meterpreter that runs on POSIX.
