Description

This module exploits an injection vulnerability in Cogent DataHub prior
to 7.3.5. The vulnerability exists in the GetPermissions.asp page, which
makes insecure use of the datahub_command function with user controlled
data, allowing execution of arbitrary datahub commands and scripts. This
module has been tested successfully with Cogent DataHub 7.3.4 on
Windows 7 SP1. Please also note that after exploitation, the remote service
will most likely hang and restart manually.
