Description

This module exploits an information disclosure vulnerability in the 'Views' module of Drupal, brute-forcing the first 10 usernames from 'a' to 'z'. Drupal 6 with 'Views' module <= 6.x-2.11 are vulnerable. Drupal does not consider disclosure of usernames as a weakness.

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.
