Description
ntfs-3g mount helper in Ubuntu 16.04, 16.10, Debian 7, 8, and possibly 9 does not properly sanitize the environment when executing modprobe. This can be abused to load a kernel module and execute a binary payload as the root user.
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 exploit/linux/local/ntfs3g/priv_escmsf undefined(priv_esc) > show actions ...actions...msf undefined(priv_esc) > set ACTION < action-name >msf undefined(priv_esc) > show options ...show and set options...msf undefined(priv_esc) > runPrioritise with Active Threat Intelligence
