CVE-2024-32238 is an incorrect access control vulnerability in the H3C ER8300G2-X router. The flaw allows unauthorized access to the management system's password via the login interface of the management system page. This could enable attackers to retrieve administrative credentials without proper authentication, due to insufficient access restrictions on sensitive information.

This repository contains a single Python script (CVE-2024-32238.py) that exploits a path traversal vulnerability (CVE-2024-32238) in a web service. The script reads a list of target URLs from 'target.txt', appends a crafted path traversal payload to each URL, and sends a GET request to attempt to download a sensitive configuration file (ER8300G2-X.cfg) from the target. If the file is successfully retrieved and does not contain an invalid key, the script saves the file locally and reports the target as vulnerable. The exploit is operational and demonstrates the ability to extract sensitive files from vulnerable devices over the network. No hardcoded product or vendor is specified, but the exploit is clearly tied to CVE-2024-32238 and targets web services vulnerable to this path traversal issue.
