Description

Cisco Prime Infrastructure (CPI) contains two basic flaws that when exploited allow
an unauthenticated attacker to achieve remote code execution. The first flaw is a file
upload vulnerability that allows the attacker to upload and execute files as the Apache
Tomcat user; the second is a privilege escalation to root by bypassing execution restrictions
in a SUID binary.

This module exploits these vulnerabilities to achieve unauthenticated remote code execution
as root on the CPI default installation.

This module has been tested with CPI 3.2.0.0.258 and 3.4.0.0.348. Earlier and later versions
might also be affected, although 3.4.0.0.348 is the latest at the time of writing.
The file upload vulnerability should have been fixed in versions 3.4.1 and 3.3.1 Update 02.
