Description

This module exploits an authentication bypass vulnerability (CVE-2024-0012) and a command injection vulnerability (CVE-2024-9474) in the PAN-OS management web interface. An unauthenticated attacker can execute arbitrary code with root privileges. The following versions are affected: * PAN-OS 11.2 (up to and including 11.2.4-h1) * PAN-OS 11.1 (up to and including 11.1.5-h1) * PAN-OS 11.0 (up to and including 11.0.6-h1) * PAN-OS 10.2 (up to and including 10.2.12-h2)

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