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.

POWERCOM UPSMON PRO for Windows Directory Traversal 0day
This module exploits a Directory Traversal vulnerability in POWERCOM UPSMON PRO for Windows, Path traversal vulnerability that can be exploited to read files outside of the web root
This update adds a new parameter to the "Ransomware Simulation" module: "RENAME FILES"; if set to TRUE, encrypted files will also be renamed by adding the .1mp4ct extension to them.
Microsoft Windows Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol DoS
A denial of service vulnerability exists in Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol service when an unauthenticated attacker connects to the target system and sends specially crafted requests.
This update adds a couple modules to simulate a ransomware attack in a previously exploited host. "Ransomware Simulation" to run the simulated ransomware attack. "Files Decryption after Ransomware Simulation" to decrypt previously encrypted files.

Spring Framework Spring4Shell Remote Code Execution Exploit
An unsafe data binding used to populate an object from request parameters (either query parameters or form data) to set a Tomcat specific ClassLoader in Spring MVC and Spring WebFlux applications allows unauthenticated attackers to upload and execute a JSP file in the Tomcat virtual file system webapps directory.
Tenda routers G3 could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the system, caused by a command injection vulnerability in function formSetNetCheckTools. By sending a specially-crafted request using the hostName parameter, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary commands on the system.
A Spring MVC or Spring WebFlux application running on JDK 9+ may be vulnerable to remote code execution (RCE) via data binding. The specific exploit requires the application to run on Tomcat as a WAR deployment. If the application is deployed as a Spring Boot executable jar, i.e. the default, it is not vulnerable to the exploit. However, the nature of the vulnerability is more general, and there may be other ways to exploit it.

SCADAPRO
ScriptCase 9.7.016 - Arbitrary File Deletion
ScriptCase 9.7.016 is vulnerable for Arbitrary File Deletion from admin's account Authorized attacker can delete any file in the system
A deserialization vulnerability present in the OpenssoEngineController component of Oracle Access Manager allows a unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTP to execute system commands.
Linux Kernel watch_queue Local Privilege Escalation Exploit
An out-of-bounds (OOB) memory write flaw was found in the Linux kernel's watch_queue event notification subsystem. This flaw can overwrite parts of the kernel state, potentially allowing a local user to gain privileged access or cause a denial of service on the system.
Execute commands without authentication as admin user , To use it in all versions, we only enter the router ip and Port(if available) in the script and Execute commands with root user.
This vulnerability allows network-adjacent attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of D-Link DAP-2020 v1.01rc001 Wi-Fi access points. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the processing of CGI scripts. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of a user-supplied string before using it to execute a system call. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of root. Was ZDI-CAN-11369.
A successful exploit could allow the attacker to view arbitrary files within the web services file system on the targeted device. As an example, this could allow an attacker to impersonate another VPN user and establish a Clientless SSL VPN or AnyConnect VPN session to the device as that user
