The module exploits an sql injection flaw in the CREATE_CHANGE_SET procedure of the PL/SQL package DBMS_CDC_PUBLISH. Any user with execute privilege on the vulnerable package can exploit this vulnerability. By default, users granted EXECUTE_CATALOG_ROLE have the required privilege.
To display the available options, load the module within the Metasploit console and run the commands 'show options' or 'show advanced':
msf > use auxiliary/sqli/oracle/dbms_cdc_publish3
msf auxiliary(dbms_cdc_publish3) > show actions
...actions...
msf auxiliary(dbms_cdc_publish3) > set ACTION < action-name >
msf auxiliary(dbms_cdc_publish3) > show options
...show and set options...
msf auxiliary(dbms_cdc_publish3) > 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.
