The Shellshock Exploit is a tool designed to efficiently exploit the Shellshock vulnerability (CVE-2014-6271) in susceptible CGI servers, enabling a precise takeover of the target server. Shellshock is a critical security vulnerability that affects the Bash shell, allowing attackers to execute arbitrary commands on the targeted system.
- Exploit Automation: Automates the exploitation of the Shellshock vulnerability in CGI scripts, streamlining the process for penetration testing and security research.
- Reverse Shell Connectivity: Provides options for establishing a reverse shell connection to the target server, supporting various methods such as Netcat (nc), TCP, and PHP.
- Customizable Options: Allows users to specify the target host, CGI script, remote host for the reverse shell, port, and preferred shell method through command-line options.
- CVE Number: CVE-2014-6271
- CVE Description: Bash through 4.3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via crafted environment variables passed to Bash scripts.
