This module exploits a directory traversal vulnerability found in Sybase EAserver's Jetty webserver on port 8000. Code execution seems unlikely with EAserver's default configuration unless the web server allows WRITE permission.
To display the available options, load the module within the Metasploit console and run the commands 'show options' or 'show advanced':
msf > use auxiliary/scanner/http/sybase_easerver_traversal
msf auxiliary(sybase_easerver_traversal) > show actions
...actions...
msf auxiliary(sybase_easerver_traversal) > set ACTION < action-name >
msf auxiliary(sybase_easerver_traversal) > show options
...show and set options...
msf auxiliary(sybase_easerver_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.
