Description

This module exploits a path traversal flaw in Novell ZENworks Asset Management 7.5. By exploiting the CatchFileServlet, an attacker can upload a malicious file outside of the MalibuUploadDirectory and then make a secondary request that allows for arbitrary code execution.

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/windows/http/zenworks_assetmgmt_uploadservlet
msf exploit(zenworks_assetmgmt_uploadservlet) > show targets
    ...targets...
msf exploit(zenworks_assetmgmt_uploadservlet) > set TARGET < target-id >
msf exploit(zenworks_assetmgmt_uploadservlet) > show options
    ...show and set options...
msf exploit(zenworks_assetmgmt_uploadservlet) > 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.
