Loading vulnerability…
CVE-2013-4811 is a vulnerability in the UpdateDomainControllerServlet component of HP ProCurve Manager (PCM) 3.20 and 4.0, PCM+ 3.20 and 4.0, and Identity Driven Manager (IDM) 4.0. The servlet fails to properly validate the adCert argument, allowing remote attackers to upload arbitrary files, including .jsp webshells, to the server. This enables attackers to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the web server process.

This repository contains a single Metasploit module targeting HP ProCurve Manager 4.0 SNAC Server (CVE-2013-4811). The exploit abuses a path traversal vulnerability in the UpdateDomainControllerServlet, allowing unauthenticated attackers to upload arbitrary JSP files to the server. The module first obtains a session by accessing the SNAC index page, then uploads a Metasploit-generated JSP payload using a crafted multipart POST request to the vulnerable servlet. After upload, the payload is executed by sending a request to the uploaded JSP file. The exploit provides remote code execution capabilities, typically resulting in a shell or Meterpreter session on the target. The module is written in Ruby and is designed to be used within the Metasploit framework. Key endpoints involved include the vulnerable servlet for upload, a servlet for vulnerability checking, and the SNAC index page for session acquisition.
