CVE-2013-4468 is a command injection vulnerability in VICIDIAL dialer (Asterisk GUI client) versions 2.8-403a, 2.7, 2.7RC1, and earlier. The vulnerability exists in the manager_send.php script, where the 'extension' parameter in the OriginateVDRelogin action is not properly sanitized, allowing remote authenticated users to inject shell metacharacters and execute arbitrary commands on the server. The vulnerable code path involves unfiltered input being passed to a passthru() call, enabling attackers to run commands with the privileges of the web server user.

This repository contains a single Metasploit module targeting the VICIdial web application (versions 2.7RC1, 2.7, 2.8-403a, and likely others) for remote OS command injection vulnerabilities (CVE-2013-4467, CVE-2013-4468). The exploit abuses unsanitized user input in the 'agc/manager_send.php' endpoint, which is executed via PHP's passthru() function. The module can bypass session checks using a SQL injection and leverages default credentials (VDCL/donotedit, VDAD/donotedit) or astGUIcient credentials to create a session if needed. The attacker can execute arbitrary shell commands on the target system, with the results returned in the HTTP response. The exploit is fully weaponized, supporting customizable command payloads via Metasploit. The repository is structured as a single Ruby file compatible with the Metasploit framework, and all logic is contained within this file.
