eScan Web Management Console Command Injection
Description
This module exploits a command injection vulnerability found in the eScan Web Management Console. The vulnerability exists while processing CheckPass login requests. An attacker with a valid username can use a malformed password to execute arbitrary commands. With mwconf privileges, the runasroot utility can be abused to get root privileges. This module has been tested successfully on eScan 5.5-2 on Ubuntu 12.04.

- Collect and share all the information you need to conduct a successful and efficient penetration test
- Simulate complex attacks against your systems and users
- Test your defenses to make sure they’re ready
- Automate Every Step of Your Penetration Test
Time is precious, so I don’t want to do something manually that I can automate. Leveraging the Metasploit Framework when automating any task keeps us from having to re-create the wheel as we can use the existing libraries and focus our efforts where it matters.
