This module allows arbitrary command execution on an ephemeral port opened by Veritas NetBackup, whilst an administrator is authenticated. The port is opened and allows direct console access as root or SYSTEM from any source address.
Linux,Unix,Windows
cmd
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/misc/veritas_netbackup_cmdexec
msf exploit(veritas_netbackup_cmdexec) > show targets
...targets...
msf exploit(veritas_netbackup_cmdexec) > set TARGET < target-id >
msf exploit(veritas_netbackup_cmdexec) > show options
...show and set options...
msf exploit(veritas_netbackup_cmdexec) > 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.
