Description

This module exploits a well known remote code execution exploit after establishing encrypted
control communications with a Data Protector agent. This allows exploitation of Data
Protector agents that have been configured to only use encrypted control communications.

This exploit works by executing the payload with Microsoft PowerShell so will only work
against Windows Vista or newer. Tested against Data Protector 9.0 installed on Windows
Server 2008 R2.
