Metasploit Framework commits add module scaffolding generators and move template interpolation to MsfModuleGenerator, with no CVE disclosed.

Two Metasploit Framework commits dated 2026-10-05 update how modules are generated inside the framework. One adds generators for module scaffolding and enablement for users and agents. The other refactors module templates so string interpolation is performed by MsfModuleGenerator. Both reports characterize the work as internal developer tooling rather than a vulnerability disclosure. Neither source mentions a CVE, a victim, an exploit payload, or active exploitation. The reports do not disagree; they describe complementary changes to module generation.
