AVideo WWBNIndex Plugin Unauthenticated RCE
Description
This module exploits an unauthenticated remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability in the WWBNIndex plugin of the AVideo platform. The vulnerability exists within the `submitIndex.php` file, where user-supplied input is passed directly to the `require()` function without proper sanitization. By exploiting this, an attacker can leverage the PHP filter chaining technique to execute arbitrary PHP code on the server. This allows for the execution of commands and control over the affected system. The exploit is particularly dangerous because it does not require authentication, making it possible for any remote attacker to exploit this vulnerability.

- 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.
