Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance SNMP Remote Code...
No, I'm saying you
can't
do that with this bug; that's what I mean by "not a pivot bug". It's a way of persisting inside access you got some other way. Because, again, people don't listen to SNMP on the outside interface.

And that is what the parent is saying. The "other way" is through the web server that is exposed to the internet and can reach the internal ASA.

Reaching "the internal ASA" isn't giving you access the webserver didn't already have, hence, persisting, not pivoting.
