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.

Apple QuickTime Style Elements TeXML Stack Buffer Overflow Exploit
Buffer Overflow when handling an attribute of style elements can be exploited when Quick Player handles a specially crafted TeXML file. 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.
Microsoft Windows OLE Automation Array Remote Code Execution Exploit (MS14-064)
An integer overflow in OLE allows remote code execution. This update contains a module exploiting the vulnerability by hosting a web site and epxloiting connecting Internet Explorer browsers.
Httpdx FTP Server tolog() Function Format String Exploit
This module exploits a format string vulnerability in HTTPDX FTP server by sending a specially crafted FTP command, corrupting the memory and executing arbitrary code.
QuickBooks Pro 2010 dbicudtx10 DLL Hijacking Exploit
QuickBooks Pro 2010 is prone to a vulnerability that may allow the execution of any library file named dbicudtx10.dll, if this dll is located in the same folder than a .QPG file.

GNU ld.so Arbitrary Dlopen Privilege Escalation Exploit
The GNU C dynamic linker (ld.so) is prone to a local privilege- escalation vulnerability. This module exploits the vulnerability to install an agent with root privileges.
This module exploits a vulnerability in ElbyCDIO.SYS driver when handling a specially crafted IOCTL request. The vulnerability allows local users to overwrite memory and execute arbitrary code via malformed Interrupt Request Packet (Irp) parameters.
Easy Chat Server Authentication Request Buffer Overflow Exploit
A remote user of vulnerable installations of Easy Chat Server can send a specially crafted password parameter to chat.ghp to trigger a buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The session list screen (provided by sessionList.jsp) in affected versions uses the orderBy and sort request parameters without applying filtering and therefore is vulnerable to a cross-site scripting attack. Users should be aware that Tomcat 6 does not use httpOnly for session cookies by default so this vulnerability could expose session cookies from the manager application to an attacker.

Microsoft Internet Explorer File Integrity Level Protected Mode Bypass Privilege Escalation Exploit (MS11-057)
The Protected Mode of Microsoft Internet Explorer can be bypassed by exploiting a logical flaw when checking the Integrity Level of a file. This module allows an agent running in the context of iexplore.exe with Low Integrity Level to install a new agent that will run with Medium Integrity Level.
HP iNode Management Center iNodeMngChecker Remote Code Execution Exploit
The flaw exists within the iNodeMngChecker.exe component which listens by default on TCP port 9090. When handling the 0x0A0BF007 packet type the process blindly copies user supplied data into a fixed-length buffer on the stack.
IBM Tivoli Storage Manager FastBackMount GetVaultDump Buffer Overflow Exploit
The specific flaw exists within FastBackMount.exe which listens by default on TCP port 30051. When handling opcode 0x09 packets, the process blindly copies user supplied data into a stack-based buffer within CMountDismount::GetVaultDump. A remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code under the context of the SYSTEM user.
