CVE-2025-5306 is an OS command injection vulnerability in Pandora FMS affecting versions 774 through 778. The issue is caused by improper neutralization of special elements in the Netflow directory field, allowing attacker-controlled input to be interpreted as part of an operating system command. If the vulnerable field is passed to shell execution logic without sufficient sanitization or safe argument handling, an attacker may inject arbitrary commands for execution on the underlying host.

This repository contains a single Metasploit module targeting a command injection vulnerability (CVE-2025-5306) in the Netflow component of PandoraFMS (versions 7.0.774 to 7.0.777.10) on Linux/Unix systems. The exploit requires valid credentials to the PandoraFMS web interface and the Netflow binaries to be present. The module works by authenticating to the web interface, retrieving a CSRF token, and injecting a payload into the Netflow configuration via a POST request to the Netflow setup endpoint. The payload is then triggered by accessing the Netflow explorer endpoint. The default payload is a reverse shell, but any command payload can be used. The code is written in Ruby and is structured as a standard Metasploit exploit module, making it easy to use and customize within the Metasploit framework. The main endpoints targeted are the PandoraFMS web interface and its Netflow configuration pages.
