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.

Joomla 1.5.12 Remote Execution Exploit Update 3
A vulnerability exists in the TinyMCE editor, included in the tiny browser plugin, which allows uploading files without authentication. This can be exploited to upload files with multiple extensions and execute arbitrary PHP code.
This module exploits a stack-based buffer overflow in the ienipp.ocx ActiveX component of Novell iPrint Client by passing an overly long value to the 'call-back-url' parameter.
A remote buffer-overflow vulnerability affects Savant Web Server. This issue occurs because the application fails to validate the length of user-supplied strings before copying them into finite process buffers.
This module exploits a vulnerability in the ienipp.ocx control included in the Novell iPrint Client application. The exploit is triggered when the Target Frame parameter processes a long string argument resulting in a stack-based buffer overflow.
Adobe PDF Newplayer JavaScript Buffer Overflow Exploit Update
This module exploits a vulnerability in Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat Professional .PDF files. The vulnerability is caused due to boundary errors in newplayer() method in multimedia.api. This can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow when a specially crafted .PDF file is opened.
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 Update adds support for Windows XP SP3 and Vista.
This module exploits a buffer overflow vulnerability in the handling of Error Packet for overwrite all the .bss section and some portion of the .idata section.
osCommerce Online Merchant 2.2 RC2a is vulnerable to an Arbitrary File Upload without the need to be authenticated. This leads to arbitrary PHP code execution in the context of the webserver.
This module tries to install a RFI agent if the Web Application is vulnerable. It will fail if the webserver is not allowed to write on the document root of the vulnerable web application.
Exploits / Remote File Inclusion / Known Vulnerabilities
Impact Professional
CORSAIR iCUE Driver Local Privilege Escalation Exploit
The CorsairLLAccess64.sys and CorsairLLAccess32.sys drivers in CORSAIR iCUE before 3.25.60 allow local non-privileged users (including low-integrity level processes) to read and write to arbitrary physical memory locations, and consequently gain NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM privileges, via a function call such as MmMapIoSpace.
Microsoft Windows CoreShellComServerRegistrar Open Process Local Privilege Escalation Exploit
An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists when Windows Core Shell COM Server Registrar improperly handles COM calls. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could potentially set certain items to run at a higher level and thereby elevate permissions.
To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker would first have to log on to the system. An attacker could then run a specially crafted application that could exploit the vulnerability and take control of an affected system.
Microsoft Windows Win32k xxxMNFindWindowFromPoint Vulnerability Exploit
An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists in Windows when the Win32k component fails to properly handle objects in memory. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could run arbitrary code in kernel mode. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights.
This module exploits a vulnerability caused due to a boundary error in BlazeHDTV when handling Playlist files. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow via a specially crafted PLF file.
The specific flaw exists within the handling of XML files. When parsing the ShortMessage SMtext element, the process does not properly validate the length of user-supplied data prior to copying it to a buffer.
FileCopa LIST Command Remote Buffer Overflow Exploit
FileCopa FTP Server is prone to a buffer-overflow vulnerability when handling data through the LIST command, a large amount of data can trigger an overflow in a finite-sized internal memory buffer.
LibreOffice LibreLogo Python Global Event Scripting Vulnerability Exploit
By abusing document's event feature in LibreOffice and the LibreLogo script, an attacker can execute arbitrary python code from within a malicious document silently, without user warning.
This module performs a bypass of CVE-2019-9848 by using global script events.
Kibana Timelion Visualizer Remote Javascript OS Command Injection Exploit
An arbitrary code execution vulnerability in the Kibana Timelion visualizer allows an attacker with access to the application to send a request that will attempt to execute javascript code with permissions of the Kibana process on the host system.

Impact
Panda Antivirus AgentSvc Local Privilege Escalation Exploit
The vulnerable is a Local Privilege Escalation in AgentSvc.exe. This service creates a global section object and a corresponding global event that is signaled whenever a process that writes to the shared memory wants the data to be processed by the service. The vulnerability lies in the weak permissions that are affected to both these objects allowing "Everyone" including unprivileged users to manipulate the shared memory and the event.
Microsoft Internet Explorer VBScript UAF Exploit (2019)
A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the way that the VBScript engine handles objects in memory. The vulnerability could corrupt memory in such a way that an attacker could execute arbitrary code in the context of the current user. An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could gain the same user rights as the current user. If the current user is logged on with administrative user rights, an attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could take control of an affected system.
PCManFTPD Server APPE Command Buffer Overflow Exploit2
Server is prone to a stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability when processing long requests. This flaw can be exploited to execute arbitrary code by sending the server a special crafted request.
The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in ext.dll when processing an overly long PassThru command. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow via an overly long, specially-crafted argument passed to the affected command.
