'Name' => 'Micro Focus (HPE) Data Protector SUID Privilege Escalation',
'Description' => %q{
This module exploits the trusted `$PATH` environment
variable of the SUID binary `omniresolve` in
Micro Focus (HPE) Data Protector A.10.40 and prior.

The `omniresolve` executable calls the `oracleasm` binary using
a relative path and the trusted environment `$PATH`, which allows
an attacker to execute a custom binary with `root` privileges.

This module has been successfully tested on:
HPE Data Protector A.09.07: OMNIRESOLVE, internal build 110, built on Thu Aug 11 14:52:38 2016;
Micro Focus Data Protector A.10.40: OMNIRESOLVE, internal build 118, built on Tue May 21 05:49:04 2019 on CentOS Linux release 7.6.1810 (Core)

The vulnerability has been patched in:
Micro Focus Data Protector A.10.40: OMNIRESOLVE, internal build 125, built on Mon Aug 19 19:22:20 2019
