HP Power Manager 'formExportDataLogs' Buffer Overflow

Description

This module exploits a buffer overflow in HP Power Manager's 'formExportDataLogs'. By creating a malformed request specifically for the fileName parameter, a stack-based buffer overflow occurs due to a long error message (which contains the fileName), which may result in arbitrary remote code execution under the context of 'SYSTEM'.

Time is precious, so I don’t want to do something manually that I can automate. Leveraging the Metasploit Framework when automating any task keeps us from having to re-create the wheel as we can use the existing libraries and focus our efforts where it matters.
