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.

Exploits / Client Side
SCADAPRO
Novell iPrint Client IPP Response URI Handling Buffer Overflow Exploit
A buffer overflow vulnerability within the handling of functions that take a URI as a parameter allows arbitrary command execution when a user loads a specially crafted web page.
MSI Dragon Center Local Privilege Escalation Exploit
The MsIo64.sys driver before 1.1.19.1016 in MSI Dragon Center before 2.0.98.0 has a buffer overflow that allows privilege escalation via a crafted 0x80102040, 0x80102044, 0x80102050, or 0x80102054 IOCTL request.
The VBoxSF.sys driver is a component of VirtualBox Guest Additions, which is in charge of providing the 'Shared Folders' feature offered by Oracle VirtualBox.
This driver doesn't properly validate a pointer when handling the IOCTL_MRX_VBOX_DELCONN IoControl. This allows an unprivileged user in a Windows Guest OS with VirtualBox Guest Additions installed to gain SYSTEM privileges within the Guest OS.
A reverse proxy bypass vulnerability allows attackers to access restricted endpoints as declared in the analytics-proxy.conf file.
Combined with a unrestricted file upload vulnerability present in the DataAppAgentController class, when using the action=collect parameter, allows attackers to execute systems commands as root.
This module exploits a vulnerability in OpenSSL by sending a "Change Ciper Spec" message to the server.
This vulnerability allows man-in-the-middle attackers to trigger use of a zero-length master key in certain OpenSSL-to-OpenSSL communications, and consequently hijack sessions or obtain sensitive information, via a crafted TLS handshake.
Microsoft Exchange Proxyshell Remote Code Execution Vulnerability Exploit
A combination of a path confusion that leads to an authentication bypass (ACL), an elevation of privilege and an arbitrary file write vulnerability, allows unauthenticated attackers to execute commands with SYSTEM privileges in Microsoft Exchange Server.
An OGNL injection vulnerability in Confluence Server and Data Center allow an unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code on a Confluence Server or Data Center instance.
Traq is vulnerable to an authentication bypass vulnerability, this module exploits this vulnerability in order to install a plugin hook to ultimately install an agent in the target host.
Microsoft Windows Media Player MIDI Heap Overflow Exploit (MS12-004)
This module exploits a heap overflow in Windows Media Player (winmm.dll) when handling a specially crafted .MID 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.
InduSoft Web Studio ISSymbol ActiveX Control Buffer Overflow Exploit
This module exploits a vulnerability in the ISSymbol.ocx control included in the InduSoft Web Studio ActiveX application. The exploit is triggered when the OpenScreen() method processes a long string argument resulting in a stack-based buffer overflow.
A java deserialization vulnerability in Zoho ManageEngine Pro before 12101 and PAM360 before 5510 allows unauthenticated attackers to send crafted XML-RPC requests with malicious serialized data to execute system commands as SYSTEM.
Linux Kernel OverlayFS Logic Upper Local Privilege Escalation Exploit
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel, where unauthorized access to the execution of the setuid file with capabilities was found in the Linux kernel OverlayFS subsystem in how a user copies a capable file from a nosuid mount into another mount. This uid mapping bug allows a local user to escalate their privileges on the system.
A command injection vulnerability has been found on D-Link DIR-823G devices with firmware version 1.02B03 that allows an attacker to execute arbitrary operating system commands through well-designed /HNAP1 requests. Before the HNAP API function can process the request, the system function executes an untrusted command that triggers the vulnerability.
