Description

This module exploits multiple vulnerabilities found in Open&Compact FTP
server. The software contains an authentication bypass vulnerability and a
arbitrary file upload vulnerability that allows a remote attacker to write
arbitrary files to the file system as long as there is at least one user
who has permission.

Code execution can be achieved by first uploading the payload to the remote
machine as an exe file, and then upload another mof file, which enables
WMI (Management Instrumentation service) to execute the uploaded payload.
Please note that this module currently only works for Windows before Vista.
