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.

Drupal BlogAPI Remote Code Execution Exploit
The BlogAPI module does not validate the extension of files that it is used to upload, enabling users with the "administer content with blog api" permission to upload harmful files. This module uploads an Core Impact agent, creates a php file to execute the agent and then makes a request to the file. The result is an Core Impact agent running on the webserver.
A cross-site scripting vulnerability is present in TestLink before 1.8.5 allowing remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the req parameter to login.php.
include/imageObjectIM.class.php in Coppermine Photo Gallery (CPG) before 1.4.15, when the ImageMagick picture processing method is configured, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in the (1) quality, (2) angle, or (3) clipval parameter to picEditor.php.
There is a reflected Cross-Site Scripting attack. An attacker able to cause a user to follow a specially crafted malicious link may be able to recover session identifiers or exploit browser vulnerabilities. The orderby parameter is vulnerable to cross-site scripting.

Trend Micro OfficeScan Buffer Overflow Exploit
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Trend Micro OfficeScan Corporate Edition. The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error within Trend Micro OfficeScan Corporate Edition when processing passwords with cgiChkMasterPwd.exe vulnerable module. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow via an overly long, specially-crafted argument passed to this module.
This module exploits an authentication vulnerability in OpenSite 2.1. The function init in origin/libs/user.php checks for a matching origin_hash cookie. However, this cookie can be bruteforced in at most 2^32 tries for a known username. Actually, the number of attempts could be significantly reduced knowing that we do not have to check for time in the future, and long past. This works for OpenSite 2.1 and below. It has to be executed against the root directory of OpenSite.

Impact
Symantec IM Manager IMAdminSchedTask eval Command Injection Exploit
The flaw exists within the ScheduleTask method exposed by the IMAdminSchedTask.asp page hosted on the web interface. This function does not properly sanitize user input from a POST variable before passing it to an eval call. An attacker can abuse this to inject and execute arbitrary ASP under the context of the user visiting the malicious link.
The vulnerability is caused by scripts using "unserialize()" with user controlled input. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary PHP code via the "__destruct()" method of the "SugarTheme" class or passing an ad-hoc serialized object through the $_REQUEST['current_query_by_page'] input variable.
Unrestricted file upload vulnerability in the Compose Email feature in the Emails module in Sugar Community Edition (aka SugarCRM) before 5.2f allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code by uploading a file with only an extension in its name, then accessing the file via a direct request to a modified filename under cache/modules/Emails/, as demonstrated using .php as the entire original name. This module starts a web server on the Core Impact Console to publish the agent, which is downloaded from the target
An internal memory buffer may be overrun while handling long "APPE" command. This condition may be exploited by attackers to ultimately execute instructions with the privileges of the ftpbasicsvr.exe process. UplusFtp server will be left inaccessible after successful exploitation.

UnrealIRCd Backdoor Unauthorized Access Exploit
This module exploits a remote command execution vulnerability found in some distributions of UnrealIRCd that contain a backdoor and installs an agent into the target host. The backdoor is present on the file Unreal3.2.8.1.tar.gz that was maliciously replaced on certain mirrors. The vulnerable file has the following MD5 checksum: 752e46f2d873c1679fa99de3f52a274d.
Local File Inclusion vulnerability in admin/index.php in TinyWebGallery 1.7.6 and earlier, when magic_quotes_gpc is disabled, allows remote attackers to include local files via the lang parameter, which leads to execute arbitrary PHP code by injecting data into the log files.
Symantec Web Gateway blocked_file.php Remote Code Execution Exploit
The spywall/blocked_file.php script of Symantec Web Gateway allows remote unauthenticated users to upload files with arbitrary extensions. This can be abused by attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code on vulnerable systems.
tiki-graph_formula.php in TikiWiki 1.9.8 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via PHP sequences in the f array parameter, which are processed by create_function.
Vulnerable code to arbitrary PHP code jnjection (works with magic_quotes_gpc = off) in /includes/converter.inc.php.

Yokogawa Centum CS 3000 BKBCopyD Remote Buffer Overflow Exploit
This module exploits a stack based buffer overflow in Yokogawa CENTUM CS 3000 by using its BKBCopyD.exe service. The Yokogawa Centum CS3000 solution uses different services in order to provide all its functionality. The BKBCopyD.exe service, started when running the FCS / Test Function, listens by default on TCP/20111. By sending a specially crafted packet to the port TCP/20111, it it is possible to trigger a stack based buffer overflow which allows execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the CENTUM user.
A unrestricted file upload vulnerability exists in includes/inline_image_upload.php within AutoSec Tools V-CMS 1.0. This allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by uploading a file with an executable extension and then accessing it via a direct request to the file in temp.
