This module exploits a directory traversal vulnerability in Ulterius Server < v1.9.5.0 to download files from the affected host. A valid file path is needed to download a file. Fortunately, Ulterius indexes every file on the system, which can be stored in the following location: http://ulteriusURL:port/.../fileIndex.db. This module can download and parse the fileIndex.db file. There is also an option to download a file using a provided path.
To display the available options, load the module within the Metasploit console and run the commands 'show options' or 'show advanced':
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.
