Loading vulnerability…
A critical vulnerability exists in the 'robotd' process of EMC AlphaStor 3.1 SP1 for Windows, which listens on TCP port 3500. The flaw allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands with SYSTEM privileges by sending a specially crafted packet containing a malicious string field. The vulnerability is pre-authentication and requires only network access to the affected port. The issue was reported by Stephen Fewer of Harmony Security and coordinated by iDefense.

2 valid exploits after Mallory filtered fakes, detection scripts, and README-only repos.
This repository contains a single Metasploit auxiliary module targeting EMC AlphaStor Library Manager. The module exploits a remote command injection vulnerability (CVE-2008-2157) by sending a specially crafted packet to the service's TCP port (default 3500). The attacker can specify any OS command to execute on the target system using the 'CMD' option. The exploit is operational and allows arbitrary command execution as the service user. The code is written in Ruby and is structured as a standard Metasploit module, making it easy to use within the Metasploit framework. No hardcoded IP addresses or domains are present; the only fingerprintable endpoint is the TCP port 3500 used by the vulnerable service.

The module exploits a remote command injection vulnerability (CVE-2008-2157) by sending a specially crafted packet to the service's TCP port (default 3000). The attacker can specify an arbitrary OS command to execute on the target system using the 'CMD' option. The module connects to the target, sends the command, and displays the output. The exploit is operational and can be used to gain command execution on vulnerable systems. The code is written in Ruby and is structured as a standard Metasploit module, making it easy to use within the Metasploit Framework.
