Western Digital Arkeia Remote Code Execution
Description
This module exploits a vulnerability found in Western Digital Arkeia Appliance version 10.0.10 and lower. By abusing the upload.php script, a malicious user can upload arbitrary code to the ApplianceUpdate file in the temp directory without authentication. Abusing the local file inclusion in the lang cookie to parse this file results in arbitrary code execution, also without authentication. The module has been tested successfully on Arkeia 10.0.10. The issues have been fixed in version 10.1.10.

- 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.
