Support for local exploits is still a stub at this point; if you want to
test it out, use the standard Remote exploit type and the existing
payloads, but just set RHOST 127.0.0.1. We may look into expanding local
exploits at some point, but it rarely makes sense to install all of
metasploit in order to abuse a local vulnerability.
