Essentially the same weapons used in WWII through modern times; depth charges (first successfully used in 1916 against the German U-boat U-68), harbor mines, torpedoes, aircraft bombs, and torpedoes.
The only thing that has really changed from those days is that torpedoes can be launched from helos or aircraft (e.g., P3 Orion ASW plane), and surface warships of the U.S. Navy carry the ASROC, which is a rocket propelled depth charge with a high-yield warhead (conventional or nuclear). The submarine equivalent, since discontinued, was SUBROC, also a rocket propelled nuclear depth bomb, launched from a standard torpedo tube.
