ZPanel zsudo Local Privilege Escalation Exploit
Description
This module abuses the zsudo binary, installed with zpanel, to escalate privileges. In order to work, a session with access to zsudo on the sudoers configuration is needed. This module is useful for post exploitation of ZPanel vulnerabilities, where typically web server privileges are acquired, and this user is allowed to execute zsudo on the sudoers file.

- 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.
