This module exploits a remote command execution vulnerability in the Barracuda Web
Application Firweall firmware versions <= v8.0.1.008 (2016-03-22) by exploiting a
vulnerability in the web administration interface. By sending a specially crafted
request it's possible to inject system commands while escalating to root do to relaxed
sudo configuration on the local machine.
