HashiCorp Nomad and Nomad Enterprise before version 2.0.1 contain a path traversal vulnerability in the client host-volume-management component. Insufficient path restriction permits traversal outside the intended filesystem location and can result in code execution on the Nomad client host.

This 34-file repository is a multi-CVE offensive research collection for Keycloak, Apache NiFi, HashiCorp Vault, and HashiCorp Nomad. It contains four standalone Python PoCs under exploits/, three corresponding Metasploit modules under metasploit-custom-modules/, module documentation, and four deliberately vulnerable Docker labs under docker-lab/. The Metasploit modules provide reusable Keycloak account takeover, Vault secret disclosure, and NiFi command/reverse-shell exploitation; Nomad is supplied as a standalone PoC only. The labs bind their primary services to localhost and intentionally use vulnerable versions: Keycloak 26.7.1, NiFi 2.8.0 with graph NARs and Keycloak OIDC, Vault 2.0.3 dev mode, and Nomad 2.0.0 with a privileged nested Docker/client setup. Notable implementation issue: exploits/nifi_rce_39816.py imports nifi_oidc from a repository-root configs directory, but the supplied nifi_oidc.py is actually located in docker-lab/nifi-cve-2026-39816/setup/; absent an external configs/nifi_oidc.py, that standalone script will fail at import time. The equivalent Metasploit NiFi module contains its own OIDC implementation and is not affected by this path mismatch.
