Script to check for vulnerable status of CVE-2020-3952

It is inspired from guardicore exploit but with a slight difference: it does NOT create an admin user.

It will assess the vulnerable status by validating that the builtin Administrators group can be tainted by creating or appending the harmless 'description' attribute.

Check

Usage:

root@kitploit:~
$ python exploit_check.py vserver_ip

Detect attempts

suricata signature rule vmware.rules is a naive approach catching the LDAP modify operation on the Administrators group. It needs to be customized with a proper signature id sid and you can tune the src and dst subnets that are set by default to any here.

It could be improved by looking specifically at members addition.
