JSON Swagger CodeGen Parameter Injector
Description
This module generates an Open API Specification 2.0 (Swagger) compliant json document that includes payload insertion points in parameters. In order for the payload to be executed, an attacker must convince someone to generate code from a specially modified swagger.json file within a vulnerable swagger-codgen appliance/container/api/service, and then to execute that generated code (or include it into software which will later be executed by another victim). By doing so, an attacker can execute arbitrary code as the victim user. The same vulnerability exists in the YAML format.

- Collect and share all the information you need to conduct a successful and efficient penetration test
- Simulate complex attacks against your systems and users
- Test your defenses to make sure they’re ready
- Automate Every Step of Your Penetration Test
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.
