Description

This module exploits a stack buffer overflow in Novell's NetIdentity Agent. When sending a specially crafted string to the 'XTIERRPCPIPE' named pipe, an attacker may be able to execute arbitrary code. The success of this module is much greater once the service has been restarted.

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.
