          This module exploits security issues in ManageEngine ADAudit Plus
          prior to 7006 that allow authenticated users to execute arbitrary
          code by creating a custom alert profile and leveraging its custom
          alert script component.

          The module first runs a few checks to test the provided
          credentials, retrieve the configured domain(s) and obtain the
          build number of the target ADAudit Plus server.

          If the credentials are valid and the target is
          vulnerable, the module creates an alert profile that will be
          triggered for any failed login attempt to the configured domain.

          For versions prior to build 7004, the payload is directly inserted
          in the custom alert script component of the alert profile.

          For versions 7004 and 7005, the module leverages an arbitrary file
          write vulnerability (CVE-2021-42847) to create a Powershell script
          in the alert_scripts directory that contains the payload. The name
          of this script is then provided as the value for the custom alert
          script component of the alert profile.

          This module requires valid credentials for an account with the
          privileges to create alert scripts. It has been successfully tested
          against ManageEngine ADAudit Plus builds 7003 and 7005 running on
          Windows Server 2012 R2.

          Successful exploitation will result in RCE as the user running
          ManageEngine ADAudit Plus, which will typically be the local
          administrator.
