Description

This module exploits two vulnerabilities, a session ID directory traversal authentication bypass (CVE-2022-20705) and a command injection vulnerability (CVE-2022-20707), on Cisco RV160, RV260, RV340, and RV345 Small Business Routers, allowing attackers to execute arbitrary commands with www-data user privileges. This access can then be used to pivot to other parts of the network. This module works on firmware versions 1.0.03.24 and below.

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.
