This module exploits vulnerabilities found in Astium astium-confweb-2.1-25399 RPM and lower. A SQL Injection vulnerability is used to achieve authentication bypass and gain admin access, allowing for arbitrary PHP code upload and ultimate remote root code execution by reloading the configuration

        This module exploits vulnerabilities found in Astium astium-confweb-2.1-25399 RPM and
        lower. A SQL Injection vulnerability is used to achieve authentication bypass and gain
        admin access. From an admin session arbitrary PHP code upload is possible. It is used
        to add the final PHP payload to "/usr/local/astium/web/php/config.php" and execute the
        "sudo /sbin/service astcfgd reload" command to reload the configuration and achieve
        remote root code execution.
