Cisco IOS SNMP File Upload (TFTP)

Created
05/30/2018

Description

This module will copy file to a Cisco IOS device using SNMP and TFTP. The action Override_Config will override the running config of the Cisco device. A read-write SNMP community is required. The SNMP community scanner module can assist in identifying a read-write community. The target must be able to connect back to the Metasploit system and the use of NAT will cause the TFTP transfer to fail.

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/snmp/cisco_upload_file
msf auxiliary(cisco_upload_file) > show actions
    ...actions...
msf auxiliary(cisco_upload_file) > set ACTION < action-name >
msf auxiliary(cisco_upload_file) > show options
    ...show and set options...
msf auxiliary(cisco_upload_file) > 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.
