Description

This module exploits XXE and SQL injection flaws in Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager versions 11.0, 12.0 and 12.1. When supplying a specially crafted XML external entity (XXE) request an attacker can reach SQL injection affected components. As xp_cmdshell is enabled in the included database instance, it's possible to execute arbitrary system commands on the target with SYSTEM privileges.

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.
