This repository contains a single Metasploit module (hp_dataprotector_cmd_exec.rb) that exploits a remote command execution vulnerability (CVE-2014-2623) in HP Data Protector 8.10 on Windows. The exploit targets the OmniInet service, which listens on TCP port 5555. By sending a specially crafted request with opcode 28, the attacker can execute arbitrary commands. Due to command length restrictions, the exploit uses rundll32.exe to load a DLL payload hosted on a fake SMB server controlled by the attacker. The module includes logic to fingerprint the target, deliver the payload, and handle SMB interactions. The exploit provides remote code execution as SYSTEM on vulnerable targets. The code is written in Ruby and is designed to be used within the Metasploit framework.
