This module exploits a directory traversal bug in XBMC 11, up until the 2012-11-04 nightly build. The module can only be used to retrieve files.
To display the available options, load the module within the Metasploit console and run the commands 'show options' or 'show advanced':
msf > use auxiliary/gather/xbmc_traversal
msf auxiliary(xbmc_traversal) > show actions
...actions...
msf auxiliary(xbmc_traversal) > set ACTION < action-name >
msf auxiliary(xbmc_traversal) > show options
...show and set options...
msf auxiliary(xbmc_traversal) > run
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.
