Unitrends UEB HTTP API Remote Code Execution

Unitrends UEB HTTP API Remote Code Execution
Posted Oct 5, 2018
Authored by h00die, Benny Husted, Cale Smith, Jared Arave | Site metasploit.com

It was discovered that the api/storage web interface in Unitrends Backup (UB) before 10.0.0 has an issue in which one of its input parameters was not validated. A remote attacker could use this flaw to bypass authentication and execute arbitrary commands with root privilege on the target system. UEB v9 runs the api under root privileges and api/storage is vulnerable. UEB v10 runs the api under limited privileges and api/hosts is vulnerable.
