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.

EasyHDR FITS Buffer Overflow Exploit
A stack-based buffer overflow in easyHDR PRO allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code via an invalid Flexible Image Transport System (FITS) file.
W3C Amaya Web Browser INPUT Tag Buffer Overflow Exploit
Multiple stack buffer overflow vulnerabilities have been discovered in Amaya, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a users system.
This module runs a web server waiting for vulnerable clients (W3C Amaya Web Browser) to connect to it. When the client connects, it will try to install an agent by exploiting this vulnerability.
Check Point Endpoint Security Initial Client Privilege Escalation Exploit
Check Point Endpoint Security includes data security, network security, advanced threat prevention, forensics, and remote access VPN solutions.
Some parts of the software run as a Windows service executed as ''NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM,'' which provides it with very powerful permissions, this vulnerability can be exploited to achieve privilege escalation, gaining access with NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM level privileges.
AT TFTP Server Long Filename Buffer Overflow Exploit
The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error during the processing of TFTP Read/Write request packet types. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow by sending a specially crafted packet with an overly long filename field.
Disk Pulse Enterprise Import Command Local Buffer Overflow Exploit
A Buffer Overflow exists when parsing .XML files by Command Import. The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error when handling a crafted .XML files.
Realtek Media Player Playlist Buffer Overflow Exploit
Realtek Media Player contains a buffer prone to exploitation via an overly long string. The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error when handling .PLA files.
Stack-based buffer overflows in CyberLink LabelPrint 2.5 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via the (1) author (inside the INFORMATION tag), (2) name (inside the INFORMATION tag), (3) artist (inside the TRACK tag), or (4) default (inside the TEXT tag) parameter in an lpp project file.
The specific flaw exists within the implementation of the 0x138bd IOCTL in the webvrpcs process. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of the length of user-supplied data prior to copying it to a fixed-length stack-based buffer. An attacker can leverage this functionality to execute code under the context of Administrator.
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Wecon LeviStudioU UserManage. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.
Perdition IMAP proxy str_vwrite format string exploit
The format string protection mechanism in IMAPD for Perdition Mail Retrieval Proxy 1.17 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an IMAP tag with a null byte followed by a format string specifier, which is not counted by the mechanism.
In the plays.tv service before 1.27.7.0, as distributed in AMD driver-installation packages and Gaming Evolved products, executes code at a user-defined (local) path as SYSTEM when the execute_installer parameter is used in an HTTP message.
Stack-based buffer overflow in the DoWebMenuAction function in the IncrediMail IMMenuShellExt ActiveX control (ImShExt.dll) allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors. This update improves the exploit reliability.
This module exploits a stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability in the web interface of DiskSavvy Enterprise caused by improper bounds checking of the request path in HTTP GET requests sent to the built-in web server.
This module exploits a vulnerability in the Yahoo Music Jukebox ActiveX Control(datagrid.dll). When the AddButton() method processes a long string argument, a stack based buffer overflow occurs allowing execution of arbitrary code.
The specific flaw exists within implementation of the 0x138bd IOCTL in the webvrpcs process. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of the length of user-supplied data prior to copying it to a fixed-length stack-based buffer.
Systems with microprocessors utilizing speculative execution and speculative execution of memory reads before the addresses of all prior memory writes are known may allow unauthorized disclosure of information to an attacker with local user access via a side-channel analysis, aka Speculative Store Bypass (SSB), Variant 4.

Linux ptrace x86_64 ia32syscall emulation exploit
This module exploits a vulnerability in Linux for x86_64. The IA32 system call emulation functionality does not zero extend the eax register after the 32bit entry path to ptrace is used, which might allow local users to trigger an out-of-bounds access to the system call table using the %RAX register and escalate privileges.
Adobe PDF JavaScript Buffer Overflow Exploit Update 3
This module exploits a vulnerability in Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat Professional .PDF files. The vulnerability is caused due to boundary errors in collectEmailInfo() method in EScript.api. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow when a specially crafted PDF file is opened.
This update adds support for Mac OS X 10.4.x and 10.5.x.
