CVE-2013-4011

This Metasploit module exploits a trusted $PATH environment variable vulnerability in the SUID binary 'ibstat' on IBM AIX systems to escalate privileges to root. It creates a malicious 'arp' script and a SUID root shell binary to gain elevated access.

This exploit leverages a vulnerability in IBM AIX's ibstat command to escalate privileges to root by manipulating the PATH environment variable to execute a malicious script. The script copies /bin/sh to a temporary location and sets the SUID bit, granting root access.
