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. Witten by our own internal team, 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.

Cisco Webex Meetings webexservice Update Service ptUpdate Downgrade Local Privilege Escalation Exploit
A vulnerability in the update service of Cisco Webex Meetings Desktop App for Windows could allow an authenticated local attacker, to execute arbitrary commands with SYSTEM user privileges.
Dokan redistributable are vulnerable to a buffer overflow in the dokan1.sys driver. An attacker can create a device handle to the system driver and send arbitrary input that will trigger the vulnerability.
Linux snapd dirty_sock Local Privilege Escalation Exploit Update
This module exploits a vulnerability in snapd which incorrectly validates and parses the remote socket address when performing access controls on its UNIX socket.
A local attacker could use this to access privileged socket APIs and obtain administrator privileges.
Linux snapd dirty_sock Local Privilege Escalation Exploit
This module exploits a vulnerability in snapd which incorrectly validates and parses the remote socket address when performing access controls on its UNIX socket.
A local attacker could use this to access privileged socket APIs and obtain administrator privileges.
Microsoft Windows DCOM-RPC NTLM Reflection Elevation of Privilege Exploit
This update adds an exploit which implements the Rotten Potato technique to perform a Local Privilege Escalation.
It leverages on local DCOM DCE/RPC connections that can be reflected back to a listening TCP socket allowing access to an NTLM authentication challenge for LocalSystem user which can be replayed to the local DCOM activation service. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could bypass security and gain elevated privileges on a targeted system.
Oracle Database Server is prone to a remote vulnerability that allows attackers to poison the data handled by the remote 'TNS Listener' component of the application.
This module tries to verify if the vulnerability is present in the 'TNS Listener' component of the database server, without deploying an agent.
Advantech WebAccess SCADA lack of proper validation of user supplied input may allow an attacker to cause the overflow of a buffer overflow and executes remote code.
The specific flaw exists within the parsing of CSP files. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of the length of user-supplied data prior to copying it to a buffer.
The specific flaw exists within the parsing of CXP files. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of the length of user-supplied data prior to copying it to a buffer.
PCManFTPD Server APPE Command Buffer Overflow Exploit2
Server is prone to a stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability when processing long requests. This flaw can be exploited to execute arbitrary code by sending the server a special crafted request.
A vulnerability in the update service of Cisco Webex Meetings Desktop App for Windows could allow an authenticated remote attacker, to execute arbitrary commands with SYSTEM user privileges.
ASUS Low Level Access Drivers Privilege Escalation Exploit
This module exploits a vulnerability in various ASUS and 3rd party branded utilities. The low level access drivers at the core of these utilities expose dangerous functionality to low privilege processes, a local attacker can read/write arbitrary kernel memory, which can be leveraged to elevate privileges.
This module exploits a vulnerability in various GIGABYTE and AORUS branded utilities. The low level access drivers at the core of these utilities expose dangerous functionality to low privilege processes, a local attacker can read/write arbitrary kernel memory, which can be leveraged to elevate privileges.
Stack-based buffer overflows in CyberLink LabelPrint 2.5 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via the (1) author (inside the INFORMATION tag), (2) name (inside the INFORMATION tag), (3) artist (inside the TRACK tag), or (4) default (inside the TEXT tag) parameter in an lpp project file.
The specific flaw exists within the implementation of the 0x2711 IOCTL in the webvrpcs process. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of a user-supplied string before using it to execute a system call.
CMS Made Simple allows remote authenticated administrators to execute arbitrary PHP code via command injection using the module import feature in admin/moduleinterface.php

Microsoft Windows SchRpcSetSecurity Local Privilege Escalation Exploit
An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists when Windows improperly handles calls to Advanced Local Procedure Call (ALPC).An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could run arbitrary code in the security context of the local system. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights.

A vulnerability in the update service of Cisco Webex Meetings Desktop App for Windows could allow an authenticated local attacker, to execute arbitrary commands with SYSTEM user privileges.
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.
