Veil vs MSFPC: Which Payload Creator tool is Best in 2025?

Veil is an open-source framework designed to generate Metasploit payloads that bypass common antivirus solutions, pre-installed on Kali Linux at /usr/share/veil. Developed by Chris Truncer and maintained by the Veil-Framework community, it consists of two main tools: Veil-Evasion for creating undetectable executables and Veil-Ordnance for generating custom shellcode. Veil leverages languages like Python, C, Go, and PowerShell to produce payloads for Windows, Linux, and macOS, integrating with Metasploit for penetration testing. Its obfuscation techniques and encryption options make it a critical tool for ethical hackers and red teamers.

MSFvenom Payload Creator (MSFPC) is an open-source, user-friendly wrapper script for generating Metasploit payloads, pre-installed on Kali Linux at /usr/bin/msfpc. Designed by g0tmi1k, it automates the creation of Meterpreter and command-shell payloads for multiple platforms, including Windows, Linux, Android, and macOS. By simplifying complex msfvenom commands, MSFPC enables penetration testers, ethical hackers, and red teamers to craft customized payloads with minimal input. Supporting options like staged/stageless payloads, bind/reverse connections, and HTTP/HTTPS protocols, it streamlines payload generation for security testing.
