CVE-2020-24572 is a command injection vulnerability in the includes/webconsole.php component of RaspAP version 2.5. The web console is misconfigured and lacks proper input validation or restrictions, allowing an authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the underlying Raspberry Pi OS. This includes the ability to upload files and execute arbitrary code, effectively granting full control over the system to the attacker.

This repository contains a proof-of-concept exploit for CVE-2020-24572, targeting RaspAP WebGUI v2.5. The exploit (exploit.py) is a Python script that leverages an authenticated remote code execution vulnerability in the web console (webconsole.php) of RaspAP. The attacker must provide the target's IP, port, their own listener IP and port, the RaspAP admin password, and a payload option (netcat, bash, or python reverse shell). The script constructs a JSON-RPC request to execute arbitrary commands on the target system via the vulnerable endpoint. If successful, it establishes a reverse shell to the attacker's machine. The README provides context and usage instructions, and the LICENSE is GPLv3. The exploit is operational and can be used for post-authentication remote code execution and potential privilege escalation if the target is misconfigured.
