This module exploits a file disclosure vulnerability in the jumpUrl mechanism of Typo3. This flaw can be used to read any file that the web server user account has access to.
To display the available options, load the module within the Metasploit console and run the commands 'show options' or 'show advanced':
msf > use auxiliary/admin/http/typo3_sa_2009_002
msf auxiliary(typo3_sa_2009_002) > show actions
...actions...
msf auxiliary(typo3_sa_2009_002) > set ACTION < action-name >
msf auxiliary(typo3_sa_2009_002) > show options
...show and set options...
msf auxiliary(typo3_sa_2009_002) > run
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.
