Description

This module exploits the unsecured User Manager REST API and a ZIP file path traversal in Apache Jetspeed-2, version 2.3.0 and unknown earlier versions, to upload and execute a shell. Note: this exploit will create, use, and then delete a new admin user. Warning: in testing, exploiting the file upload clobbered the web interface beyond repair. No workaround has been found yet. Use this module at your own risk. No check will be implemented.

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/multi/http/apache_jetspeed_file_upload
msf exploit(apache_jetspeed_file_upload) > show targets
    ...targets...
msf exploit(apache_jetspeed_file_upload) > set TARGET < target-id >
msf exploit(apache_jetspeed_file_upload) > show options
    ...show and set options...
msf exploit(apache_jetspeed_file_upload) > 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.
