Progress Flowmon 12.3.5 Local sudo Privilege Escalation

Posted on 30 May 2024

This Metasploit module abuses a feature of the sudo command on Progress Flowmon. Certain binary files are allowed to automatically elevate with the sudo command. This is based off of the file name. This includes executing a PHP command with a specific file name. If the file is overwritten with PHP code it can be used to elevate privileges to root. Progress Flowmon up to at least version 12.3.5 is vulnerable.
