Description

This module uses a vulnerability in the OpenView Omniback II service to execute arbitrary commands. This vulnerability was discovered by DiGiT and his code was used as the basis for this module. For Microsoft Windows targets, due to module limitations, use the "unix/cmd/generic" payload and set CMD to your command. You can only pass a small amount of characters (4) to the command line on Windows.

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.
