Home / exploits PRTG Network Monitor Remote Code Execution
Posted on 28 January 2021
This Metasploit module exploits an authenticated remote code execution vulnerability in PRTG Network Monitor. Notifications can be created by an authenticated user and can execute scripts when triggered. Due to a poorly validated input on the script name, it is possible to chain it with a user-supplied command allowing command execution under the context of privileged user. The module uses provided credentials to log in to the web interface, then creates and triggers a malicious notification to perform remote code execution using a Powershell payload. It may require a few tries to get a shell because notifications are queued up on the server. This vulnerability affects versions prior to 18.2.39.
