  • →Detect the info-leak phase: a UDP packet to port 7426 with 4-byte header 0x000002aa followed by ~4000 null bytes, used to leak a libov pointer from the stack to defeat ASLR. ↗
  • →Detect the exploit trigger: a UDP packet to port 7426 with header 0x000002a9 containing the string '-SA;' followed by a large ROP payload (~775 bytes of alpha text) and embedded command payload, targeting the pmd service strcpy/strcat stack overflow. ↗
  • →Alert on the pmdmgr_init probe packet: UDP to port 7426 with exactly 0xfa4 (4004) bytes and leading bytes 05 02 00 00 CC 03 00 00 0C 0A 00 00 A8 0C 00 00; a valid 8-byte response with first DWORD 0x2a5 confirms a vulnerable pmd service. ↗
  • →The exploit payload type is cmd/bash-compatible (generic python perl openssl bash-tcp gawk); look for unexpected shell process spawning from the pmd service process on affected HP NNMi Linux hosts. ↗
  • ·The module notes 'Privileged => false' for NNMi 9.20 but 'true for HP NNMi 9.10', meaning post-exploitation privilege level differs between target versions. ↗
  • ·Null bytes are bad characters for the payload; any detection or blocking of null bytes in UDP payloads to port 7426 will break the exploit but may also affect legitimate NNMi traffic. ↗
