Description

This module exploits two separate vulnerabilities found in the Watchguard XCS virtual
appliance to gain command execution. By exploiting an unauthenticated SQL injection, a
remote attacker may insert a valid web user into the appliance database, and get access
to the web interface. On the other hand, a vulnerability in the web interface allows the
attacker to inject operating system commands as the 'nobody' user.
