Descriptions

Rapid7 Metasploit Framework versions before 5.0.85 suffers from an instance of CWE-78: OS Command Injection, wherein the libnotify plugin accepts untrusted user-supplied data via a remote computer's hostname or service name. An attacker can create a specially-crafted hostname or service name to be imported by Metasploit from a variety of sources and trigger a command injection on the operator's terminal. Note, only the Metasploit Framework and products that expose the plugin system is susceptible to this issue -- notably, this does not include Rapid7 Metasploit Pro. Also note, this vulnerability cannot be triggered through a normal scan operation -- the attacker would have to supply a file that is processed with the db_import command.

Las versiones de Rapid7 Metasploit Framework anteriores a la versión 5.0.85 sufren de una instancia de CWE-78: Inyección de comandos del sistema operativo, en la que el complemento libnotify acepta datos no seguros proporcionados por el usuario a través del nombre de host o nombre de servicio de un ordenador remoto. Un atacante puede crear un nombre de host o nombre de servicio especialmente diseñado para ser importado por Metasploit desde una variedad de fuentes y desencadenar una inyección de comando en la terminal del operador. Tenga en cuenta que solo Metasploit Framework y los productos que exponen el sistema de complementos son susceptibles a este problema; en particular, esto no incluye Rapid7 Metasploit Pro. También tenga en cuenta que esta vulnerabilidad no puede activarse mediante una operación de exploración normal: el atacante tendría que proporcionar un archivo que se procese con el comando db_import.
