OpenMediaVault rpc.php Authenticated Cron Remote Code Execution
Description
OpenMediaVault allows an authenticated user to create cron jobs as root on the system. An attacker can abuse this by sending a POST request via rpc.php to schedule and execute a cron entry that runs arbitrary commands as root on the system. All OpenMediaVault versions including the latest release 7.4.2-2 are vulnerable.

- 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.
