Core Certified Exploits

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.

Title Description Date Added CVE Link Exploit Platform Exploit Type Product Name
.NET Assembly Execution This update adds the capability to Windows agents of executing .net assemblies in the target's memory.

Also, a specific module to trigger SharpHound (BloodHound data Collector) is included in it. 		Post Exploitation Impact
010 Editor wintab32 DLL Hijacking Exploit 010 Editor is prone to a vulnerability that may allow the execution of any library file named wintab32.dll, if this dll is located in the same folder than a .HEX file. Windows Exploits/Client Side Impact
10-Strike LANState Local Buffer Overflow Exploit A Buffer Overflow exists when parsing .lsm files. The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error when handling a crafted .lsm files. NOCVE-9999-113689 Windows Exploits / Client Side Impact
3Com TFTP Transporting Mode Buffer Overflow Exploit This module exploits a buffer overflow vulnerability during the processing of TFTP Read/Write request packet types and cause a stack-based buffer overflow by sending a specially crafted packet with an overly long mode field. CVE-2006-6183 Windows Exploits/Remote Impact
3D Life Player WebPlayer ActiveX Buffer Overflow Exploit A boundary error exists in the WebPlayer ActiveX control when processing the "SRC" property with an overly long string. Windows Exploits/Client Side Impact
3S CoDeSys Gateway Server Arbitrary File Upload Exploit 3S Codesys Gateway Server is prone to a directory traversal vulnerability that allows arbitrary file creation. CVE-2012-4705 Windows Exploits/Remote Impact
3S Pocketnet Tech VMS PocketNetNVRMediaClientAxCtrl.NVRMediaViewer.1 SaveCurrentImageEx Buffer Overflow Exploit The specific flaw exists within the PocketNetNVRMediaClientAxCtrl.NVRMediaViewer.1 control. The SaveCurrentImageEx method copies an attacker provided filename into a fixed size buffer. CVE-2014-9263 Windows Exploits/Client Side Impact
3S-Smart Software Solutions GmbH CODESYS Web Server Upload Restricted File and Buffer Overflow Exploit A specially crafted web server request may allow the upload of arbitrary files to the CODESYS Web Server without authorization which may allow remote code execution.

A malicious user could overflow a buffer by providing overly long strings to functions that handle the XML. Because the function does not verify string size before copying to memory, the attacker may then be able to crash the application or run arbitrary code. 		CVE-2017-6027 Windows Exploits / Remote Impact
7T Interactive Graphical SCADA System DataServer 9.x Denial of Service Remote Denial Of Service in Interactive Graphical SCADA DataServer 9.x Denial of Service / Remote SCADA
