This module exploits an anonymous remote code execution on HP System Management 7.1.1 and earlier. The vulnerability exists when handling the iprange parameter on a request against /proxy/DataValidation. In order to work HP System Management must be configured with Anonymous access enabled.

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