Description

This module exploits an arbitrary command execution vulnerability in the Vtiger install script. This module is set to ManualRanking due to this module overwriting the target database configuration, which may result in a broken web app, and you may not be able to get a session again.

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/multi/http/vtiger_install_rce
msf exploit(vtiger_install_rce) > show targets
    ...targets...
msf exploit(vtiger_install_rce) > set TARGET < target-id >
msf exploit(vtiger_install_rce) > show options
    ...show and set options...
msf exploit(vtiger_install_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.
