CVE-2015-5287

This Metasploit module exploits CVE-2015-5287, a privilege escalation vulnerability in ABRT's sosreport on RHEL systems. It uses a symlink attack to overwrite the modprobe path, achieving root privileges.

This exploit leverages CVE-2015-5287 and CVE-2015-5273 to achieve local privilege escalation on CentOS 7.1/Fedora 22 by abusing insecure file operations in abrt-hook-ccpp and abrt-action-install-debuginfo. It manipulates symbolic links and coredump handling to overwrite /proc/sys/kernel/modprobe, leading to root shell execution.

This exploit leverages a race condition in abrt/sosreport on RHEL 7.0/7.1 to achieve local privilege escalation by manipulating symbolic links and triggering a modprobe path override. It creates a suid shell to gain root access.
