Exploit Title: HP Insight Control for VMware vCenter Server Multiple Vulnerabilities
Date: 11/05/2014
Author: Glafkos Charalambous
Version: 7.3
Vendor: HP

Product Description: HP Insight Control for VMware vCenter Server (Insight Control for vCenter) is a single integrated application that you use to manage ProLiant servers and/or HP storage systems. The application consists of four modules. The core module is required along with at least one of the three optional
components.
Impact:
A low privilege attacker can read sensitive information files, decrypt all configuration server passwords and gain access to the above systems which in turn lead to the compromise of the whole infrastructure.
Vulnerabilities:
Local Insecure File Permissions Vulnerability
A local attacker can exploit this issue by gaining access to low privileged readable files and extracting sensitive information.
VMware vCenter Physical and Virtual Infrastructure configured servers include IP Addresses, Usernames and Encrypted passwords
