CVE-2016-5674 is an unauthenticated command-injection / arbitrary PHP code execution vulnerability in the web management interface of NUUO NVRmini 2 versions 1.7.5 through 3.0.0, NUUO NVRsolo versions 1.7.5 through 3.0.0, and NETGEAR ReadyNAS Surveillance versions 1.1.1 through 1.4.1. The vulnerable component is a hidden page, debugging_center_utils.php, which does not properly validate the log parameter. According to the provided context, attacker-controlled input from this parameter is passed to the PHP system() function, enabling remote execution of arbitrary commands/code.

This repository contains a single Metasploit module (modules/exploits/linux/http/nuuo_nvrmini_unauth_rce.rb) that exploits an unauthenticated remote code execution vulnerability (CVE-2016-5674) in the NUUO NVRmini 2 and NETGEAR ReadyNAS Surveillance web interfaces. The exploit targets the '/__debugging_center_utils___.php' endpoint, abusing the 'log' GET parameter to inject and execute arbitrary shell commands. The module automatically detects the target device type and adjusts the payload accordingly, handling character restrictions and available binaries on the target. Successful exploitation results in code execution as root (on NVRmini 2) or as the 'admin' user (on ReadyNAS). The module is weaponized, allowing attackers to supply custom command payloads, and is part of the Metasploit framework. The repository is structured as a single Ruby file, following standard Metasploit module conventions.
