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.

ViscomSoft VideoCap ActiveX Control Remote File Create Vulnerability This module will receive HTTP requests from vulnerable clients and install agents on them. Exploits / Client Side IOT
Viscom Software Movie Player Pro SDK ActiveX Remote Buffer Overflow Exploit A stack-based buffer overflow occurs when you pass to "strFontName" parameter a string overly long than 24 bytes which leads into EIP overwrite allowing the execution of arbitrary code in the context of the logged on user. This happens because an inadequate space is stored into the buffer intended to receive the font name. Windows Exploits/Client Side Impact
VirtualMin Dom Parameter Cross Site Scripting Exploit Input passed to the "dom" parameter in left.cgi and via the URL to virtual-server/link.cgi is not properly sanitized before being returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of an affected site. Exploits/Cross Site Scripting (XSS)/Known Vulnerabilities Impact
Virtual Collaborative Environment DoS This module causes a Denial of Service in Virtual Collaborative Environment. Windows Denial of Service / Remote MEDICAL
VirIT eXplorer Anti-Virus Arbitrary Write Local Privilege Escalation Exploit In VirIT eXplorer Anti-Virus, the VIAGLT64.SYS driver file contains an Arbitrary Write vulnerability, and can be exploited to elevate privileges from a local account to SYSTEM. Windows Exploits / Local Impact
Viper RGB Driver Read Write IO Ports DoS Update This update adds the CVE number. Windows Denial of Service / Local Impact
Viper RGB Driver Read Write IO Ports DoS The IOCTL Codes 0x80102050 and 0x80102054 allow a low privileges user to read/write 1/2/4 bytes from/to an IO port. This could be leveraged in a number of ways to ultimately run code with elevated privileges. Windows Denial of Service / Local Impact
Viper RGB Driver Kernel Buffer Overflow Local Privilege Escalation Exploit This module exploits a buffer overflow vulnerability in Viper RGB MsIo64.sys vulnerability allows unprivileged local users to execute code with SYSTEM privileges. Windows Exploits / Local Impact
Viper RGB Driver Kernel Arbitrary Read Write Local Privilege Escalation Exploit The MsIo64.sys and MsIo32.sys drivers in Patriot Viper RGB allow local users (including low integrity processes) to read and write to arbitrary memory locations, and consequently gain NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM privileges, by mapping \Device\PhysicalMemory into the calling process via ZwOpenSection and ZwMapViewOfSection. Windows Exploits / Local Impact
VIPA Controls WinPLC7 Buffer Overflow Exploit A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability has been identified, where an attacker with a specially crafted packet could overflow the fixed length buffer. This could allow remote code execution. Windows Exploits / Remote Impact
VideoSpirit Pro Buffer Overflow Exploit Update VideoSpirit Pro is prone to a buffer overflow when parsing a .VISPRJ project file that contains an overly long "MP3" value. The vulnerability is caused due to a wrong check of the data before it is passed to strcpy(). This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow via a specially crafted .VISPRJ file. This update adds the CVE number. Windows Exploits/Client Side Impact
