        This module exploits a remote command execution vulnerability in ElasticSearch,
        exploitable by default on ElasticSearch prior to 1.2.0. The bug is found in the
        REST API, which requires no authentication or authorization, where the search
        function allows dynamic scripts execution, and can be used for remote attackers
        to execute arbitrary Java code. This module has been tested successfully on
        ElasticSearch 1.1.1 on Ubuntu Server 12.04 and Windows XP SP3.
