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.

We provide pen testers with real-time updates for a wide range of exploits for different platforms, operating systems, and applications.
Search our continuously growing library to discover an exploit that will allow you to gain and retain access on the target host or application.
The Rhino Script Engine of Oracle Java fails to properly check for permissions on JavaScript error objects. This flaw allows an unprivileged applet to escape the sandbox and execute arbitrary code on the target machine with the privileges of the current user.
Microsoft Windows Meeting Space DLL Hijacking Exploit (MS11-085)
Windows Meeting Space is prone to a vulnerability that may allow the execution of any library file named wab32res.dll, if this dll is located in the same folder as a .WCINV file.
Oracle WebLogic 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.
The map_yp_alias function in functions/imap_general.php in SquirrelMail before 1.4.18 and NaSMail before 1.7 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in a username string that is used by the ypmatch program. This module works if map:map_yp_alias is set as the imap server address in config.php, which is not the default setting.
This update improves os detection and adds runtime cost.
This module exploits a stack-based buffer overflow in GDI in Microsoft Windows, allowing remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a specially crafted EMF image file.
ManageEngine EventLog Analyzer is vulnerable to abuse a SQL query functionality that allows attackers to insert and export a crafted JSP using 'guest' credentials allowing us to install an agent.
A logical error in sudo when the env_reset option is disabled allows local attackers to define environment variables that were supposed to be blacklisted by sudo.
This can be exploited by a local unprivileged attacker to gain root privileges by manipulating the environment of a command that the user is legitimately allowed to run with sudo.
By properly setting the ProjectURL property, it is possible for an attacker to download an arbitrary dll file from a remote location and run the code in the dll in the context of the target process.
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of software utilizing CATIA.
The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error when copying a user supplied input to a fixed size stack buffer. The copying procedure stops when a null byte is found and no size check is proceeded.
Cisco Linksys PlayerPT ActiveX Control Buffer Overflow Exploit Update 2
This module exploits a vulnerability in the PlayerPT.ocx module included in the Cisco Linksys WVC200 Wireless-G PTZ Internet Video Camera application. The exploit is triggered when the SetSource() method processes a crafted argument resulting in a buffer overflow.
This update improves the xml of the module to be compatible with new product functionality.
Disk Pulse Server GetServerInfo Request Buffer Overflow Exploit Update
A vulnerability exists in the way Disk Pulse Server v2.2.34 process a remote clients "GetServerInfo" request.The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in libpal.dll when handling network messages and can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow via a specially crafted packet sent to TCP port 9120.
This module exploits a vulnerability in Adobe Flash Player triggered when processing a specially crafted .SWF 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.
Disk Pulse Server GetServerInfo Request Buffer Overflow Exploit
A vulnerability exists in the way Disk Pulse Server v2.2.34 process a remote clients "GetServerInfo" request.The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in libpal.dll when handling network messages and can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow via a specially crafted packet sent to TCP port 9120.
HTML Email Creator HTML Tags Buffer Overflow Exploit
HTML Email Creator is prone to multiple remote buffer-overflow vulnerabilities because the application fails to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied input, when sending or creating mails, with malformed HTML tags.
Power Tab Editor is prone to a buffer-overflow vulnerability because it fails to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied data when handling .PTB files.
Sun Java Web Start Arbitrary Command Line Injection Exploit Update
Argument injection vulnerability in the URI handler in Java Deployment Toolkit allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via the -J argument to javaws.exe, which is processed by the launch method.
This update adds support for Windows Vista and Windows 7.
SAP GUI SAPLPD Multiple Command Buffer Overflow Exploit
Buffer overflow in SAPLPD 6.28 and earlier included in SAP GUI 7.10 and SAPSprint before 1018 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via long arguments to the (1) 0x01, (2) 0x02, (3) 0x03, (4) 0x04, and (5) 0x05 LPD commands.
Eureka Mail Client Error Response Buffer Overflow Exploit
The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in the processing of POP3 responses. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow via an overly long error response.
