Loading vulnerability…
Automox Agent versions prior to 32 on Windows platforms set insecure permissions on a temporary directory. This misconfiguration could allow unauthorized users to access or modify files within the directory, potentially leading to privilege escalation or other attacks depending on the contents and usage of the directory.

This repository provides a proof-of-concept (POC) exploit for CVE-2021-43326, a local privilege escalation vulnerability in the Automox Windows Agent (versions 31-33). The main exploit is implemented in 'exploit.ps1', a PowerShell script that monitors the Automox agent's working directory for PowerShell scripts, injects a user-specified payload (default: 'whoami'), and copies the results to a user-accessible directory. The exploit leverages the agent's polling mechanism, which can be triggered manually using the included 'getOS.sh' Bash script that sends a crafted API request to the Automox cloud console. The exploit requires local access and targets Windows systems running vulnerable Automox agent versions. The repository includes a README with usage instructions, references to the CVE and related blog posts, and a disclaimer. No weaponized or framework-based code is present; the exploit is a standalone POC.
