CVE-2017-1092 is a critical remote code execution vulnerability in IBM Informix Open Admin Tool (OAT) versions 11.5, 11.7, and 12.1 running on Windows servers. The vulnerability allows an unauthorized user to execute arbitrary code with system administrator privileges. The issue is related to unauthenticated static PHP code injection, heap buffer overflow, and remote DLL injection vulnerabilities in the OAT, which can be exploited remotely without authentication.

This repository contains a single Metasploit module targeting IBM OpenAdmin Tool (OAT) for Informix (versions 11.5, 11.7, 12.1) and exploits CVE-2017-1092. The exploit leverages a vulnerability in the SOAP 'welcomeServer' service, specifically the 'saveHomePage' method, which allows unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary PHP code into the config.php file via the 'new_home_page' parameter. The module first writes a PHP backdoor to config.php, then triggers code execution by sending a POST request with base64-encoded PHP payload. The exploit is operational and allows for arbitrary code execution as the web server user. The main endpoints involved are '/openadmin/services/welcome/welcomeService.php' (for code injection) and '/openadmin/conf/config.php' (for code execution). The repository is a standard Metasploit exploit module written in Ruby, with all logic contained in a single file.
