This Metasploit module exploits an arbitrary file write vulnerability in the Netscape Portable Runtime library (libnspr) on unpatched Solaris systems prior to Solaris 10u3 which allows users to gain root privileges. libnspr versions prior to 4.6.3 allow users to specify a log file with the `NSPR_LOG_FILE` environment variable. The log file is created with the privileges of the running process, resulting in privilege escalation when used in combination with a SUID executable. This Metasploit module writes a shared object to the trusted library directory `/usr/lib/secure` and runs the specified SUID binary with the shared object loaded using the `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` environment variable. This Metasploit module has been tested successfully with libnspr version 4.5.1 on Solaris 10u1 (01/06) (x86) and Solaris 10u2 (06/06) (x86).
0f80a93992c7fdfbc617a2b680a3059eHiScout GRC Suite versions prior to 3.1.5 suffer from a file upload vulnerability. An authenticated attacker with the permission to edit or add a "WebSiteElement" to the "content" pages is able to upload any file with any file extension to the data directory of the application. This directory is in the web root and the uploaded file is executed on the server if ".aspx" is chosen as the file extension and if the file contains aspx source code. Any commands can be executed with the permissions of the web server user on the server by exploiting this vulnerability.
a35fd22828c02d235e1b374dd87de2afThis Metasploit module exploits an injection vulnerability in the Network Manager VPNC plugin to gain root privileges. This Metasploit module uses a new line injection vulnerability in the configured username for a VPN network connection to inject a `Password helper` configuration directive into the connection configuration. The specified helper is executed by Network Manager as root when the connection is started. Network Manager VPNC versions prior to 1.2.6 are vulnerable. This Metasploit module has been tested successfully with VPNC versions: 1.2.4-4 on Debian 9.0.0 (x64); and 1.1.93-1 on Ubuntu Linux 16.04.4 (x64).
37f40fef98e4c4b4a836d2e93622bc7fThe Mandos system allows computers to have encrypted root file systems and at the same time be capable of remote or unattended reboots. The computers run a small client program in the initial RAM disk environment which will communicate with a server over a network. All network communication is encrypted using TLS. The clients are identified by the server using an OpenPGP key that is unique to each client. The server sends the clients an encrypted password. The encrypted password is decrypted by the clients using the same OpenPGP key, and the password is then used to unlock the root file system.

d3a4658f89d1a4cec29023fc05fc7223Microhard Systems 3G/4G Cellular Ethernet and Serial Gateway systems have a web shell application that includes a service called Microhard Sh that is documented only as 'reserved for internal use'. This service can be enabled by an authenticated user within the Services menu in the web admin panel. This can also be enabled via CSRF attack. When the service is enabled, a user 'msshc' is created on the system with password 'msshc' for SSH shell access on port 22. When connected, the user is dropped into a NcFTP jailed environment, that has limited commands for file transfer administration. One of the commands is a custom added 'ping' command that has a command injection vulnerability that allows the attacker to escape the restricted environment and enter into a root shell terminal that can execute commands as the root user. Many versions are affected.
3679d738983dec17aa3243aa408c3212Microhard Systems 3G/4G Cellular Ethernet and Serial Gateway systems suffer from multiple authenticated arbitrary remote code execution vulnerabilities with highest privileges. This is due to multiple hidden and undocumented features within the admin interface that allows an attacker to create crontab jobs and/or modify the system startup script that allows execution of arbitrary code as root user. Many versions are affected.
21e4fe6dfbdca8fc7b0eeebde7b04dd1Microhard Systems 3G/4G Cellular Ethernet and Serial Gateway systems utilize hard-coded credentials within its Linux distribution image. These sets of credentials are never exposed to the end-user and cannot be changed through any normal operation of the gateway. Another vulnerability could allow an authenticated attacker to gain root access. The vulnerability is due to default credentials. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by logging in using the default credentials. Many versions are affected.

7b2a6c35406bb911afd0cff37bc8cfdaIBM QRadar SIEM has three vulnerabilities in the Forensics web application that when chained together allow an attacker to achieve unauthenticated remote code execution. The first stage bypasses authentication by fixating session cookies. The second stage uses those authenticated sessions cookies to write a file to disk and execute that file as the "nobody" user. The third and final stage occurs when the file executed as "nobody" writes an entry into the database that causes QRadar to execute a shell script controlled by the attacker as root within the next minute. Details about these vulnerabilities can be found in the advisories listed in References. The Forensics web application is disabled in QRadar Community Edition, but the code still works, so these vulnerabilities can be exploited in all flavors of QRadar. This Metasploit module was tested with IBM QRadar CE 7.3.0 and 7.3.1. IBM has confirmed versions up to 7.2.8 patch 12 and 7.3.1 patch 3 are vulnerable. Due to payload constraints, this module only runs a generic/shell_reverse_tcp payload.

3c493d70dda3e9875442ed78bc1db5d8This Metasploit module exploits a few different vulnerabilities in Nagios XI 5.2.6-5.4.12 to gain remote root access. The steps are: 1. Issue a POST request to /nagiosql/admin/settings.php which sets the database user to root. 2. SQLi on /nagiosql/admin/helpedit.php allows us to enumerate API keys. 3. The API keys are then used to add an administrative user. 4. An authenticated session is established with the newly added user 5. Command Injection on /nagiosxi/backend/index.php allows us to execute the payload with nopasswd sudo, giving us a root shell. 6. Remove the added admin user and reset the database user.
