CVE-2013-3336 is an unspecified vulnerability in Adobe ColdFusion versions 9.0, 9.0.1, 9.0.2, and 10 that allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files on the server via unknown vectors. The vulnerability likely involves improper input validation or path traversal, enabling attackers to access sensitive files outside the intended directories.

This repository contains a single Metasploit auxiliary module: 'coldfusion_pwd_props.rb'. The module exploits a directory traversal vulnerability (CVE-2013-3336) in Adobe ColdFusion 9 and 10, allowing remote attackers to retrieve the 'password.properties' file, which contains sensitive password hashes and encrypted values. The module first fingerprints the ColdFusion version and platform, then checks for the vulnerability by making HTTP requests to specific ColdFusion administrative endpoints. If the target is vulnerable, it crafts a directory traversal request to extract the password file. The extracted credentials are displayed and stored as loot within Metasploit. The module is written in Ruby and leverages Metasploit's HTTP client and reporting features. The main attack vector is network-based, targeting ColdFusion's HTTP(S) interface. The endpoints involved include several administrative ColdFusion URLs and the password.properties file on both Windows and Linux platforms.
