Description

This module exploits a stack buffer overflow in the IBM Tivoli Storage Manager Express CAD Service (5.3.3). By sending an overly long GET request, it may be possible for an attacker to execute arbitrary code.

Module Options

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/ibm_tsm_cad_header
msf exploit(ibm_tsm_cad_header) > show targets
    ...targets...
msf exploit(ibm_tsm_cad_header) > set TARGET < target-id >
msf exploit(ibm_tsm_cad_header) > show options
    ...show and set options...
msf exploit(ibm_tsm_cad_header) > 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.
