SixApart MovableType Storable Perl Code Execution
Description
This module exploits a serialization flaw in MovableType before 5.2.12 to execute arbitrary code. The default nondestructive mode depends on the target server having the Object::MultiType and DateTime Perl modules installed in Perl's @INC paths. The destructive mode of operation uses only required MovableType dependencies, but it will noticeably corrupt the MovableType installation.

- 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.
