Description

This module exploits a code execution flaw in HP AutoPass License Server. It abuses two weaknesses in order to get its objective. First, the AutoPass application doesn't enforce authentication in the CommunicationServlet component. Second, it's possible to abuse a directory traversal when uploading files thorough the same component, allowing to upload an arbitrary payload embedded in a JSP. The module has been tested successfully on HP AutoPass License Server 8.01 as installed with HP Service Virtualization 3.50.

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.
