Loading vulnerability…
An authentication bypass vulnerability exists in the password reset functionality of Zoho ManageEngine ADSelfService Plus prior to version 5.0.6. The vulnerability allows an attacker with physical access to the system to exploit the restricted thick client browser by sending a long sequence of crafted keyboard input, ultimately gaining a shell with SYSTEM privileges.

This repository provides a proof-of-concept (PoC) exploit for CVE-2019-12476, an authentication bypass vulnerability in ManageEngine ADSelfService Plus (tested on version 4.3.3, but may affect other versions prior to 5.0.6) on Windows 10. The exploit is implemented as a HIDScript for use with the P4wnP1_aloa hardware platform, which emulates a USB keyboard to automate a sequence of keystrokes. The script navigates the Windows login and password reset interface, ultimately launching PowerShell and executing 'whoami' to demonstrate code execution as SYSTEM without authentication. The README.md provides detailed reproduction steps and context, including mitigation advice. The only fingerprintable endpoint is the path to PowerShell on Windows. The exploit is a local attack requiring physical access or a malicious HID device, and does not target network endpoints. The repository consists of the exploit script and documentation, with the main entry point being 'CVE-2019-12476-HID.js'.
