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
Orbital Viewer .ORB Buffer Overflow Exploit
Orbital Viewer is prone to a stack-based buffer-overflow vulnerability because the application fails to properly bounds-check user-supplied data before copying it into an insufficiently sized buffer.
This module exploits a XSS vulnerability in JOnAS which allows IMPACT Pro to perform remote command injection impersonating an administrator and uploading a plugin to the JOnAS server.
This module runs a web server waiting for a JOnAS administrator to connect to it. When the client connects, it will retrieve their JOnAS cookie and try to install an agent on the JOnAS server by installing a custom plugin in JOnAS.
Multiple ACDSee products are prone to a buffer-overflow vulnerability because they fail to perform adequate boundary checks when processing a malformed TIF image.
Microsoft Word Record Parsing Buffer Overflow Exploit (MS09-027)
Microsoft Word is prone to a buffer-overflow vulnerability.
An attacker can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code in the context of the currently logged-in user. Failed exploit attempts will likely result in denial-of-service conditions.
Numark Cue contains a buffer prone to exploitation via an overly long string. The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in Numark Cue when handling .M3U files.
This module exploits a vulnerability in the ienipp.ocx control included in Novell iPrint Client v4.32 and prior. The exploit is triggered when the ExecuteRequest() method processes a long string argument resulting in a stack-based buffer overflow. This module runs a malicious web site on the CORE IMPACT Console and waits for an unsuspecting user to trigger the exploit by connecting to the web site.
VLC Media Player Format String exploit linux support update
This module tries to attack VLC Media Player by sending a crafted OGG file that triggers a format string and overwrites a subroutine pointer during rendering.
Orbit Downloader is vulnerable to a buffer overflow attack, which can be exploited by malicious remote attackers to execute arbitrary code. The vulnerability is due to Orbit not properly converting an URL ASCII string to UNICODE. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary code by downloading a file from a specially crafted URL.
The specific flaw exists within the processing of DVP files. The process does not properly validate the length of user-supplied data prior to copying it to a fixed-length stack-based buffer. This update adds CVE number and corrects some xml tags.
This module exploits a vulnerability in IrfanView FlashPix plugin (.fpx files). The vulnerability is caused due to boundary error in fpx.dll within the processing of fpx files. This can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow when a specially crafted file is opened.
The vulnerability is caused due to boundary errors in wordperfect within the processing of WPD files. Wordperfect X3 fails to check the length of the printer selection (.PRS) filename stored inside Wordperfect documents, allowing an attacker to cause a stack overflow in order to execute arbitrary code.
This module runs a server waiting for vulnerable clients to connect to it. When the client connects, it will try to install an agent by exploiting a vulnerability in Apple QuickTime, which allows unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service condition.
This updates adds Vista as a supported platform for Quicktime 7.3 and
also targets Quicktime version 7.2 in both Windows XP and Windows Vista.
This module exploits a vulnerability caused due to a boundary error in the ierpplug.dll of the Real Player application. This module runs a malicious web site on the CORE IMPACT Console and waits for an unsuspecting user to trigger the exploit by connecting to the web site.
This module exploits a stack-based buffer overflow in Microsoft Windows Media Player 9 and 10 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a PNG image with a large chunk size.

Schneider Electric VAMPSET ASCII Argument Heap Overflow Exploit
The vulnerability in VAMPSET is caused by opening crafted VAMPSET disturbance recording files with log ASCII argument. This produce a heap overflow vulnerability when this info is copied to a fixed sized buffer in the heap.

Amaya Web Browser BDO HTML TAG Buffer Overflow Exploit Update
This module exploits a vulnerability caused by boundary errors in Amaya Web Browser within the processing of a BDO HTML tag that has an overly long DIR attribute, allowing an attacker to cause a stack overflow in order to execute arbitrary code.
This update fixes an issue when using the option "Generate File".
The specific flaw exists within the 'factory' object's loadExtensionFactory method. The issue lies in a failure to validate the size of an attacker-supplied input before copying it into a fixed-size buffer on the stack. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code under the context of the current process.
