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.

Mozilla Firefox OnChannelRedirect Method Memory Corruption Exploit
This module exploits an use after free in Mozilla Firefox when manipulating an mChannel Element.
Mozilla Firefox UTF-8 Buffer Overflow Exploit Update
This module exploits a buffer overflow in Mozilla Firefox when parsing a malformed UTF-8 encoded URL. This update appends info to the "Supported systems notes" section.
This module exploits a heap based buffer overflow vulnerability in Mozilla Firefox via a WOFF font file embedded in a HTML. 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.
This module exploits a heap overflow vulnerability in Mozilla Thunderbird; the exploit is triggered when the user opens an attachment with a specially crafted Content-Type headers using the Thunderbird email client.

MPlayer SAMI Subtitle File Buffer Overflow Exploit
This module exploits a vulnerability in MPlayer. A stack-based buffer overflow in the sub_read_line_sami function in MPlayer SVN Versions before 33471 and SMPlayer 0.6.9 and older versions allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a SAMI subtitle file.
Array index error in libmpdemux/demux_mov.c in MPlayer 1.0 rc2 and earlier might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a QuickTime MOV file with a crafted stsc atom tag.
MS SMB 2.0 Negociate Protocol Request Remote BSOD Exploit Update
This update improves the exploit reliability. This module exploits a vulnerability on srv2.sys via a SMB 2 malformed packet. 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.
MS SMB 2.0 Negociate Protocol Request Remote Exploit Update 2
This update uses two different methods to exploit the targets, and it also improves the exploited target stability when repairing the SMB service. This module exploits a vulnerability on srv2.sys via a SMB 2 malformed packet.
MS SMB 2.0 Negociate Protocol Request Remote Exploit Update 3
This module exploits a vulnerability in srv2.sys via a SMB 2 malformed packet. This Update adds support for attacking over IPv6 and additional support for Windows Server 2008
MS Word Record Parsing Buffer Overflow Exploit (MS09-027) Update
Microsoft Word is prone to a buffer-overflow vulnerability. An attacker can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code in the context of the currently logged-in user. Failed exploit attempts will likely result in denial-of-service conditions. This update adds support for Office 2003 SP0.
The driver in Micro-Star MSI Afterburner 4.6.2.15658 (aka RTCore64.sys and RTCore32.sys) allows any authenticated user to read and write to arbitrary memory, I/O ports, and MSRs.
MSI Ambient Link Local Privilege Escalation Exploit
Multiple stack buffer overflows were found in the MSI AmbientLink MsIo64 driver when processing IoControlCode (IOCTL) 0x80102040, 0x80102044, 0x80102050, 0x80102054. Local attackers, including low integrity processes, can exploit these vulnerabilities and consequently gain NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM privileges.
This module exploits MODAPI.sys in MSI Dragon Center 2.0.104.0 which allows low-privileged users to write an arbitrary value to a Model-Specific Register (MSR) at the specified address.
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.
MSRPC CA ARCserve Backup Command Injection Exploit
CA BrightStor ARCserve Backup is prone to a command injection vulnerability on the RPC interface that could permit the execution of arbitrary remote code. A remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code and completely compromise the computer.
MSRPC CA ARCserve Backup Command Injection Exploit Update
CA BrightStor ARCserve Backup is prone to a command injection vulnerability on the RPC interface that could permit the execution of arbitrary remote code. A remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code and completely compromise the computer. This update improves the reliability of the exploit.
