HP SiteScope SOAP Call getSiteScopeConfiguration Remote Code Execution Vulnerability

Summary
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of HP SiteScope. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists because HP SiteScope allows unauthenticated SOAP calls to be made to the SiteScope service. One of those calls is getSiteScopeConfiguration() which will return the current configuration of the server including the administrator login and password information. A remote attacker could abuse this vulnerability to login to SiteScope with administrative privileges then execute arbitrary code through the underlying functionality.
