'Name' => 'HPE Systems Insight Manager AMF Deserialization RCE',  
'Description' => %q{  
A remotely exploitable vulnerability exists within HPE System Insight Manager (SIM) version 7.6.x that can be  
leveraged by a remote unauthenticated attacker to execute code within the context of HPE System Insight  
Manager's hpsimsvc.exe process, which runs with administrative privileges. The vulnerability occurs due  
to a failure to validate data during the deserialization process when a user submits a POST request to  
the /simsearch/messagebroker/amfsecure page. This module exploits this vulnerability by leveraging an  
outdated copy of Commons Collection, namely 3.2.2, that ships with HPE SIM, to gain  
RCE as the administrative user running HPE SIM.
