CVE-2011-10019 affects Spreecommerce (RubyGems package spree) versions prior to 0.60.2. The vulnerability is in the application's search functionality, which fails to properly sanitize user-controlled input supplied via the search[send][] parameter. That parameter is dynamically invoked using Ruby's send method, allowing attacker-controlled method invocation that can be leveraged to execute arbitrary shell commands on the server. The issue is remotely exploitable and does not require authentication.

This repository contains a single Metasploit module (modules/exploits/multi/http/spree_search_exec.rb) that exploits an arbitrary command execution vulnerability in Spreecommerce version 0.60.1 (CVE-2011-10019). The exploit leverages unvalidated input in the search functionality, which is passed to Ruby's 'send' method, allowing attackers to execute arbitrary system commands via a specially crafted HTTP GET request. The module is weaponized, supporting Metasploit's cmd payloads, and is capable of executing attacker-supplied commands on the target server. The only required configuration is the URI path to the Spreecommerce site, which defaults to '/'. The exploit targets Linux and Unix platforms. The code is written in Ruby and is structured as a standard Metasploit exploit module, making it easy to use within the Metasploit framework.
