      Monit Remote Shell Exploit (Long HTTP Request)
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    SUMMARY

    A proof-of-concept code is presented which exploits a vulnerability in
    Monit's HTTP interface. The vulnerability is featured in a previous
    <http://www.securiteam.com/unixfocus/6F00O1P8UK.html> article.

    DETAILS

    Vulnerable Systems:
     * Monit version 4.1

    Immune Systems:
     * Monit version 4.1.1

    Exploit:
    #!/usr/bin/perl
    #
    # Monit 4.1 (possibly earlier too) remote shell exploit (HTTP)
