Core Certified Exploits

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.

Title Description Date Added CVE Link Exploit Platform Exploit Type Product Name
ISC DHCP Remote DoS Update This module exploits a vulnerability in ISC DHCP Server. The vulnerability is caused due to the improper handling of DHCP requests within dhcpd in the cons_options() function in options.c. This causes a stack-based buffer corruption by sending a specially crafted DHCP request specifying a maximum message size smaller than 278 bytes. This update adds support for Linux. CVE-2007-5365 Linux Denial of Service/Remote Impact
ispVM System XCF File Processing Buffer Overflow Exploit A buffer overflow vulnerability exists in ispVM when processing crafted .XCF files can be exploited via an overly long version value within the ispXCF tag. Windows Exploits/Client Side Impact
Ivanti Avalanche WLAvalancheService Unauthenticated Remote Buffer Overflow Exploit This module exploits a remote stack-based buffer overflow in Wavelink Avalanche Manager by sending a malformed packet to the 1777/TCP port. CVE-2023-32560 Windows Exploits / Remote Impact
Ivanti Secure Access VPN Client Privilege Escalation Exploit The vulnerability is a pointer override that is reached by calling DeviceIoControl within IRP_MJ_DEVICE_CONTROL and called using the IOCTL 0x80002018. CVE-2023-38043 Windows Exploits / Local Impact
IZArc ztv7z DLL Hijacking Exploit IZArc is prone to a vulnerability that may allow the execution of any library file named wintab32.dll, if this dll is located in the same folder than a .ARJ file. Windows Exploits/Client Side Impact
JatonTec Config Download Vulnerability Exploit This module exploits a download the persistent settings file. FreeBSD Exploits / Remote SCADA
Java MixerSequencer Object GM_Song Structure Handling Exploit This vulnerability exists within the handling of MixerSequencer objects. When this object is used to play a MIDI file, the GM_Song structure is populated with song data. In particular, it stores a integer value from the file and uses it later as an index into an array of function pointers. If this value is over 128 the process can be made to call a pointer outside the array. CVE-2010-0842 Windows Exploits/Client Side Impact
JBoss Application Server DeploymentFileRepository Remote Code Execution Exploit A directory traversal vulnerability in the DeploymentFileRepository class in JBoss Application Server allows remote attackers who are able to access the console manager to create files on arbitrary locations of the filesystem. This can be abused to gain execution of arbitrary code by sending special HTTP requests to the JMX Console. CVE-2006-5750 Windows Exploits/Remote Code Execution Impact
JBoss commons-collections Java Library Deserialization Vulnerability Remote Code Execution Exploit JBoss Application Server is prone to a remote vulnerability due to deserialization of untrusted inputs, allowing attackers to instantiate arbitrary Java objects leading to remote code execution. Windows Exploits/Remote Code Execution Impact
JBoss EJBInvokerServlet Java Deserialization Vulnerability Remote Code Execution Exploit JBoss Application Server is prone to a remote vulnerability due to deserialization of untrusted inputs, allowing attackers to instantiate arbitrary java objects leading to remote code execution.

This vulnerability affects the EJBInvokerServlet component of the server. 		NOCVE-9999-75005 Windows, Linux Exploits / Remote Code Execution Impact Professional
JBoss Enterprise Application Platform JMX Console Authentication Bypass Remote Code Execution Exploit The JMX-Console web application in JBoss Enterprise Application Platform performs access control only for the GET and POST methods, which allows remote attackers to send requests to this application's GET handler by using a different method. This module will exploit this vulnerability to deploy an agent by uploading a JSP file to the target server. CVE-2010-0738 Linux Exploits/Remote Code Execution Impact
JBoss Seam 2 Framework actionOutcome Remote Code Execution Exploit An input sanitization flaw was found in the way JBoss Seam processes certain parameterized JBoss Expression Language (EL) expressions.
