          This module exploits unauthenticated access to the runner() and
          _send_pub() methods in the SaltStack Salt master's ZeroMQ request
          server, for versions 2019.2.3 and earlier and 3000.1 and earlier, to
          execute code as root on either the master or on select minions.

          VMware vRealize Operations Manager versions 7.5.0 through 8.1.0 are
          known to be affected by the Salt vulnerabilities.

          Tested against SaltStack Salt 2019.2.3 and 3000.1 on Ubuntu 18.04, as
          well as Vulhub's Docker image.
