A command injection vulnerability exists in license.php in system-portal before version 1.6.2, as used in op5 Monitor and op5 Appliance before 5.5.3. The vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands on the server by supplying shell metacharacters in the 'timestamp' parameter when performing an install action.

This repository contains a single Metasploit module (modules/exploits/multi/http/op5_license.rb) that exploits a remote command execution vulnerability (CVE-2012-0261) in OP5 Monitor's license.php script. The exploit targets OP5 Monitor versions 5.3.5, 5.4.0, 5.4.2, 5.5.0, and 5.5.1 running on Linux. The module sends a crafted HTTPS POST request to the license.php endpoint, injecting commands via the 'timestamp' parameter using backticks. Successful exploitation results in arbitrary command execution as root, allowing the attacker to run payloads such as reverse shells. The module supports command payloads in perl, ruby, or python, and is fully integrated into the Metasploit framework, making it weaponized and easy to use. The only fingerprintable endpoint is the /license.php path, which must be accessible over HTTPS on the target system.
