Description

This module checks for a static SSL certificate shipped with Supermicro Onboard IPMI controllers. An attacker with access to the publicly-available firmware can perform man-in-the-middle attacks and offline decryption of communication to the controller. This module has been on a Supermicro Onboard IPMI (X9SCL/X9SCM) with firmware version SMT_X9_214.

Module Options

To display the available options, load the module within the Metasploit console and run the commands 'show options' or 'show advanced':

msf > use auxiliary/scanner/http/smt_ipmi_static_cert_scanner
msf auxiliary(smt_ipmi_static_cert_scanner) > show actions
    ...actions...
msf auxiliary(smt_ipmi_static_cert_scanner) > set ACTION < action-name >
msf auxiliary(smt_ipmi_static_cert_scanner) > show options
    ...show and set options...
msf auxiliary(smt_ipmi_static_cert_scanner) > 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.
