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.

MyBB >= 1.2.0,
Linux, Windows
Exploits / Remote Code Execution
SCADAPRO
MyBB Privilege Escalation Exploit
A vulnerability has been reported in MyBB, which can be exploited by malicious users to conduct SQL injection attacks. Input passed via the "birthdayprivacy" parameter to inc/datahandlers/user.php is not properly sanitised before being used in SQL queries. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code. Successful exploitation requires a valid user account. The vulnerability is reported in MyBB 1.4.x versions prior to 1.4.7.
Exploits/Authentication Weakness
Impact
mySCADA myPRO 7 remote discover all ProjectID
mySCADA myPRO 7 allows remote attackers to discover all ProjectIDs in a project by sending all of the prj parameter values from 870000 to 875000 requests to TCP port 11010.
This module exploits a remote vulnerability to install an agent into the target host.
Windows
Exploits / Remote
SCADA
MySQL create function exploit update
MySQL 4.0.23 and earlier, and 4.1.x up to 4.1.10, allows remote authenticated users with INSERT and DELETE privileges to execute arbitrary code by using CREATE FUNCTION to access libc calls. This module exploits this vulnerability, and this update improve the exploit reliability.
MySQL with yaSSL SSL Certificate Handling Remote Stack Buffer Overflow Exploit
MySQL compiled with yaSSL is prone to a remote stack-based buffer-overflow vulnerability because the application fails to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied data.
A vulnerability has been reported in Nagios, which can be exploited by malicious users to potentially compromise a vulnerable system. Input passed to the "ping" parameter in statuswml.cgi is not properly sanitized before being used to invoke the ping command. This can be exploited to inject and execute arbitrary shell commands. Additional research revealed that this parameter is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery. This module exploits the XSRF vulnerability in order to install an agent using the command injection vulnerability.
NaviCOPA Web Server Remote Buffer Overflow Exploit
The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error within the handling of HTTP GET requests. This may allow execution of arbitrary code by sending an overly long, specially crafted HTTP GET request to the server.
This module exploits a vulnerability in the NCTAudioFile2.AudioFile ActiveX Control (NCTAudioFile2.dll) used by various multimedia applications. The exploit is triggered when a long string argument is processed by the SetFormatLikeSample() method resulting in a stack-based buffer overflow. 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 module exploits a vulnerability in the NeoTraceExplorer ActiveX Control (NeoTraceExplorer.dll). The exploit is triggered when a long string argument is processed by the TraceTarget() method resulting in a stack-based buffer overflow. 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.
Nero CoverDesigner is prone to a vulnerability that may allow the execution of any library file named ThreadRegister.dll, if this dll is located in the same folder than a .CDC file.
Windows
Exploits/Client Side
Impact
Net Transport eDonkey Protocol Buffer Overflow Exploit
The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in the processing of eDonkey "OP_LOGINREQUEST" packets. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow by sending a specially crafted packet to the ed2k port of an affected system.
The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in the CNC_Ctrl.dll ActiveX control when handling the BackupToAvi() method.
Windows
Exploits/Client Side
Impact
NetBIOS Cache Corruption Update
Corrupts the NetBIOS Cache to allow redirection of NetBIOS and DNS names to an arbitrary IP Address. This update fixes a problem when closing the local udp port used by the module, in cases where the execution was stopped manually.
This module exploits a Information Disclosure vulnerability in Netgear DGN2200 DGND3700

Netgear ProSafe Network Management System Arbitrary File Upload Vulnerability Exploit
A vulnerability exists in the FileUpload2Controller servlet. This servlet allows unauthenticated file uploads. By uploading a JSP file, an attacker can achieve remote code execution.
NETGEAR R6250 before 1.0.4.6.Beta, R6400 before 1.0.1.18.Beta, R6700 before 1.0.1.14.Beta, R6900, R7000 before 1.0.7.6.Beta, R7100LG before 1.0.0.28.Beta, R7300DST before 1.0.0.46.Beta, R7900 before 1.0.1.8.Beta, R8000 before 1.0.3.26.Beta, D6220, D6400, D7000, and possibly other routers allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in the path info to cgi-bin/.
