Description

This module abuses the "Command" trap in Zabbix Server to execute arbitrary commands without authentication. By default the Node ID "0" is used, if it doesn't work, the Node ID is leaked from the error message and exploitation retried. According to the vendor versions prior to 1.6.9 are vulnerable. The vulnerability has been successfully tested on Zabbix Server 1.6.7 on Ubuntu 10.04.

Module Options

To display the available options, load the module within the Metasploit console and run the commands 'show options' or 'show advanced':

msf > use exploit/linux/misc/zabbix_server_exec
msf exploit(zabbix_server_exec) > show targets
    ...targets...
msf exploit(zabbix_server_exec) > set TARGET < target-id >
msf exploit(zabbix_server_exec) > show options
    ...show and set options...
msf exploit(zabbix_server_exec) > exploit

Time is precious, so I don’t want to do something manually that I can automate. Leveraging the Metasploit Framework when automating any task keeps us from having to re-create the wheel as we can use the existing libraries and focus our efforts where it matters.
