Loading vulnerability…
A SQL injection vulnerability exists in the GETOPENALARM function of NUUO Central Management Server (CMS) versions 3.3 and prior. The web server application fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input, allowing injection of arbitrary SQL characters into an executing statement. This can be leveraged by an authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary SQL commands, including enabling xp_cmdshell and achieving remote code execution on the underlying system.

This repository contains a single Metasploit module (Ruby file) that exploits an authenticated SQL injection vulnerability (CVE-2018-18982) in Nuuo Central Management Server (CMS) versions up to 2.10.0 on Windows. The exploit abuses the alarm query functionality to inject SQL commands, enabling xp_cmdshell on the underlying SQL Server 2005 Express (default install). It then uses this access to download and execute a custom payload (EXE) on the target system via a PowerShell script, which is delivered by a temporary HTTP server started by the module. The exploit requires authentication (valid session or credentials) and targets the CMS service on TCP port 5180. The payload is customizable and provides remote code execution as the NETWORK_SERVICE user. The module registers dropped files for cleanup and disables SSL for the payload delivery. The code is operational and ready for use within the Metasploit framework.
