CVE-2014-3789 is a command injection vulnerability in the GetPermissions.asp script of Cogent Real-Time Systems Cogent DataHub prior to version 7.3.5. The vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands on the server via unspecified vectors, likely due to insufficient input validation or sanitization in the ASP script.

This repository contains a single Metasploit module targeting a command injection vulnerability (CVE-2014-3789) in Cogent DataHub versions prior to 7.3.5 on Windows. The exploit abuses insecure handling of user input in the GetPermissions.asp page, allowing attackers to execute arbitrary DataHub commands and load malicious DLLs via a crafted HTTP POST request. The module sets up a WebDAV server to host the payload DLL, which is then loaded by the vulnerable service using a UNC path. The exploit provides remote code execution, typically resulting in a Meterpreter session or custom payload execution. After exploitation, the DataHub service is likely to hang and require manual restart. The code is written in Ruby and is designed to be used within the Metasploit framework.
