This is a new module addressing an old vulnerability in OpenMediaVault, an open-source NAS solution. The vulnerability exists within all OpenMediaVault versions starting from 0.1 until the recent release 7.4.2-2 and it allows an authenticated user to create cron jobs as root on the system. An attacker can abuse this by sending a POST request via rpc.php to schedule and execute a cron entry that runs arbitrary commands as root on the system. I created a Metaspoit module unix/webapp/openmediavault_auth_cron_rce that has been released in main stream of Metasploit.

Annoucement will follow shortly.
