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.

Product Name
Omni-NFS Server NFSD Stack Buffer Overflow Exploit
A buffer overflow exist in nfsd.exe in XLink Omni-NFS Server and allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted TCP packet to port 2049 (nfsd).
Linux Kernel Netfilter Dup Netdev OOB Write Local Privilege Escalation Exploit
net/netfilter/nf_dup_netdev.c in the Linux kernel 5.4 through 5.6.10 allows local users to gain privileges because of a heap out-of-bounds write. This is related to nf_tables_offload.
This module exploits a directory traversal vulnerability in XISOM X-Scada Viewer Web Server
Windows
Exploits / Remote
SCADA
Basilic diff PHP Code Execution Exploit
This module abuses a metacharacter injection vulnerability in the diff.php script. This flaw allows an unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary commands as the www-data user account.
This module allows remote attackers to place arbitrary files on a temporary folder in Novel ZENWorks AdminStudio, through a vulnerability in LaunchHelp.dll ActiveX Control (LaunchHelp.dll version 9.5.0.0). Code execution is achieved by uploading and executing a vbs script which then requests and executes Impact's binary agent.
Aladdin Knowledge System Ltd PrivAgent ChooseFilePath Buffer Overflow Exploit
This module exploits a buffer overflow vulnerability in the Aladdin Knowledge System Ltd PrivAgent.ocx ActiveX Control. The exploit is triggered when the ChooseFilePath() method processes a long string argument resulting in a stack-based buffer overflow.
Microsoft Windows OLE Automation Array Remote Code Execution Exploit (MS14-064) Update
An integer overflow in OLE allows remote code execution. This update contains a module exploiting the vulnerability by hosting a web site and epxloiting connecting Internet Explorer browsers.
Atlassian Bitbucket Git Remote OS Command Injection Exploit
OS command injection vulnerability in multiple API endpoints of Bitbucket Server and Data Center. An attacker with access to a public Bitbucket repository or with read permissions to a private one can execute arbitrary code by sending a malicious HTTP request.
A stack buffer overflow occurs when copying a user supplied input to a fixed size stack buffer without boundary check leading to overwrite the SEH and the return address.
The copying procedure stops when a null word is found and no size check is proceeded.
CWP (aka Control Web Panel or CentOS Web Panel) 7 before 0.9.8.1147 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary OS commands via shell metacharacters in the login parameter. This module allows us to deploy an agent in a remote vulnerable target.
Winamp is prone to a buffer-overflow vulnerability that occurs because it fails to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied data via a crafted .MID file.
Microsoft Windows Ancillary Function Driver for WinSock Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability Exploit
The Ancillary Function Driver (AFD.sys) present in Microsoft Windows is vulnerable to an arbitrary memory overwrite. This module allows a local unprivileged user to execute arbitrary code with SYSTEM privileges by sending a specially crafted IOCTL to the vulnerable driver.
The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error within PSOProxy when processing HTTP GET Request. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow via an overly long, specially-crafted argument passed to the affected command.
Adobe Premiere CS4 is prone to a vulnerability that may allow the execution of any library file named iacenc.dll, if this dll is located in the same folder than a .PPJ file.
010 Editor is prone to a vulnerability that may allow the execution of any library file named wintab32.dll, if this dll is located in the same folder than a .HEX file.
Advantage Data Architect wfapi DLL Hijacking Exploit
Advantage Data Architect is prone to a vulnerability that may allow the execution of any library file named wfapi.dll, if this dll is located in the same folder than a .ADT file.
Microsoft Windows SystemDefaultEUDCFont Privilege Escalation Exploit
This module exploits a privilege escalation vulnerability in Microsoft Windows by setting a specially crafted SystemDefaultEUDCFont value in the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\EUDC Registry key, and then calling EnableEUDC() function in GDI32 library. It will enable local unprivileged users to gain SYSTEM privileges.
The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error when handling the PEstrarg1 property and can be exploited to cause a heap overflow by assigning an overly long string to this property.
