Library of expert validated exploits for safe and effective pen tests
Exploit development can be an advanced penetration testing skill that takes time to master. Additionally, when on a job, pen testers often don’t have the resources to create a new exploit. Many resort to searching for and using pre-written exploits that have not been tested and must go through the timely effort of quality assurance testing in order to ensure they are secure and effective.
Core Impact users can save time by finding all the up-to-date exploits they need in one place. We provide a robust library of exploits designed to enable pen testers to safely and efficiently conduct successful penetration tests. Whether written by our own internal team or by a third party like ExCraft, you can trust they have been thoroughly tested and validated by our experts.
The universe of vulnerabilities is huge and not all of them represent the same risk for the customers. Vulnerabilities do not all have the same level of criticality. Some may be easily exploitable by a low-level user, while others may not be exploitable at all. To increase the efficiency of the attacks and the quality of the exploits provided, the Core Impact team has developed selection criteria to prioritize its analysis and implementation. We determine which exploits warrant creation based on the following questions:
What are the most critical attacks from the attacker’s perspective?
What new vulnerabilities are more likely to be exploited in real attacks?
What exploits are the most valuable for Core Impact?
Once an exploit is approved, its priority order considers the following variables:
Vulnerability Properties: CVE, disclosure date, access mechanism and privileges needed.
Target Environment Setup: OS, application prevalence, version and special configurations needed.
Value Provided to Core Impact: Customer request, usage in multiple attacks, allows the installation of an agent, etc.
Technical Cost vs. Benefit: An analysis weighing the resources needed to build an exploit with the internal and external knowledge gained in its creation.
Each one of these variables has a different weight and provides a ranking of the potential exploits to be developed. Following those criteria, the top of the list would contain, for example, a vulnerability on Windows (most popular OS) that can be exploited remotely, without authentication and that provides super user privileges.
Correspondingly, a vulnerability on an application that is rarely installed, needs special configurations, and requires User Interaction, would be at the bottom.

Product Name
Apache Incomplete Header DoS
This module creates a large number of connections to the Apache server that are left opened preventing it from accepting legitimate requests.
WARNING: This is an early release module. This is not the final version of this module. It is a pre-released version in order to deliver a module as quickly as possible to our customers that may be useful in some situations. Since this module is not the final version it may contain bugs or have limited functionality and may not have complete or accurate documentation.
This module sends a series of UDP packets containing malformed IAX2 requests that will crash vulnerable listening IAX clients. If a broadcast IP address is specified, an entire subnetwork can be attacked in a single run.
Microsoft Windows Telnet Server ProcessDataReceivedOnSocket DoS (MS15-002)
A stack-based buffer overflow in the ProcessDataReceivedOnSocket function in the Microsoft Telnet Server Helper (tlntsess.exe) can be used by remote unauthenticated attackers to render the Telnet server unresponsive.
Solar FTP Server is prone to a Denial of Service condition. It fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input with a specially crafted "USER" command, a remote attacker can potentially disable the FTP service.

OpenLDAP modrdn Request Multiple Vulnerabilities
OpenLDAP allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service effect (service crash) via a modrdn call with a zero-length RDN destination string, which is not properly handled by the smr_normalize function and triggers a NULL pointer dereference in the IA5StringNormalize function within schema_init.c
This module causes a Denial of Service in Virtual Collaborative Environment.

Horos 2.1.0 DICOM Medical Image Viewer Remote Denial Of Service
Remote Denial Horos DICOM Medical Image Viewer. HorosaC is an open-source, free medical image viewer. The goal of the Horos Project is to develop a fully functional, 64-bit medical image viewer for OS X. Horos is based upon OsiriX and other open source medical imaging libraries.
The vulnerability is caused due to the usage of vulnerable collection of libraries that are part of DCMTK Toolkit, specifically the parser for the DICOM Upper Layer Protocol or DUL.
