Advantech iView Unauthenticated Remote Code Execution
Description
This module exploits an unauthenticated configuration change combined with an unauthenticated file write primitive, leading to an arbitrary file write that allows for remote code execution as the user running iView, which is typically NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM. This issue was demonstrated in the vulnerable version 5.7.02.5992 and fixed in version 5.7.03.6112.

- 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.
