Description

This module exploits a vulnerability in Bludit. A remote user could abuse the uuid parameter in the image upload feature in order to save a malicious payload anywhere onto the server, and then use a custom .htaccess file to bypass the file extension check to finally get remote code execution.

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