Description

This module exploits an unauthenticated remote code execution vulnerability in Remote for Mac versions up to and including 2025.7 via the /api/executeScript endpoint. When authentication is disabled on the target system, it allows attackers to execute arbitrary AppleScript commands, which can include shell commands via `do shell script`. All versions up to 2025.7 (including patch versions) are vulnerable.

Time is precious, so I don’t want to do something manually that I can automate. Leveraging the Metasploit Framework when automating any task keeps us from having to re-create the wheel as we can use the existing libraries and focus our efforts where it matters.
