LibreNMS addhost Command Injection
Description
This module exploits a command injection vulnerability in the open source network management software known as LibreNMS. The community parameter used in a POST request to the addhost functionality is unsanitized. This parameter is later used as part of a shell command that gets passed to the popen function in capture.inc.php, which can result in execution of arbitrary code. This module requires authentication to LibreNMS first.

- Collect and share all the information you need to conduct a successful and efficient penetration test
- Simulate complex attacks against your systems and users
- Test your defenses to make sure they’re ready
- Automate Every Step of Your Penetration Test
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.
