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
Acrobat Reader DC Double-Free Vulnerability Exploit
Adobe Reader has a built-in sandbox feature that usually makes exploitation difficult. By combining vulnerabilities, this attack achieves code execution and then bypasses the sandbox protection to fully compromise the targeted system.
The software allows the attacker to upload or transfer files of dangerous types to the WebHMI portal, that may be automatically processed within the product's environment or lead to arbitrary code execution. Tested on WebHMI 4.0.7475
Exploits / Remote Code Execution
SCADAPRO
Windows Print Spooler Arbitrary File Deletion LPE Exploit
This vulnerability allows an Arbitrary File Deletion in any protected folder.
Used in conjunction with other vulnerability that allows Arbitrary File Writing, an attacker could escalate from unprivileged user to SYSTEM.
An issue was discovered in Zimbra Collaboration (ZCS) 8.8.15 and 9.0. An attacker can upload arbitrary files through amavisd via a cpio loophole (extraction to /opt/zimbra/jetty/webapps/zimbra/public) that can lead to incorrect access to any other user accounts. Zimbra recommends pax over cpio. Also, pax is in the prerequisites of Zimbra on Ubuntu; however, pax is no longer part of a default Red Hat installation after RHEL 6 (or CentOS 6). Once pax is installed, amavisd automatically prefers it over cpio.

Go Anywhere MFT Accept Deserialization Vulnerability Remote Code Execution Exploit
Fortra (formerly, HelpSystems) GoAnywhere MFT suffers from a pre-authentication command injection vulnerability in the License Response Servlet due to deserializing an arbitrary attacker-controlled object. This issue was patched in version 7.1.2.
A Buffer Overflow exists in Sync Breeze Enterprise 10.4.18 when parsing .XML files by Command Import. The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error when handling a crafted .XML files.
Lepide Auditor Suite createdb Web Console Database Injection Remote Code Execution Vulnerability Exploit
The application allows an attacker to specify a server to perform authentication. That server also allows to execute controlled SQL directly against the database.
This module abuses of the previous vulnerabilities in order execute an agent as SYSTEM.
The specific flaw exists within nvA1Media.ocx. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of the length of user-supplied data prior to copying it to a heap-based buffer. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code under the context of the process.
Linux Kernel packet_set_ring Privilege Escalation Exploit
This module exploits a signedness error condition in the Linux Kernel via PACKET_RX_RING option on an AF_PACKET socket with a TPACKET_V3 ring buffer version enabled.
The packet_set_ring function in net/packet/af_packet.c in the Linux kernel through 4.10.6 does not properly validate certain block-size data, which allows local users to escalate privileges.
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
mySCADA myPRO 7 remote discover all ProjectID
mySCADA myPRO 7 allows remote attackers to discover all ProjectIDs in a project by sending all of the prj parameter values from 870000 to 875000 requests to TCP port 11010.
Disk Sorter Enterprise server is prone to a buffer-overflow vulnerability when handling a crafted GET request, this can trigger an overflow in a finite-sized internal memory buffer, and install an agent with SYSTEM privileges.
Microsoft Windows Win32k xxxEnableMenuItem Elevation of Privilege Exploit
An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists due to the Windows kernel improperly validating input passed from user mode to the kernel. The vulnerability could allow an attacker to run code with elevated privileges.
Arcserve UDP from version 7.0 to 9.0 allows authentication bypass. The method getVersionInfo in WebServiceImpl/services/FlashServiceImpl exposes the AuthUUID token. This token can be used at /WebServiceImpl/services/VirtualStandbyServiceImpl to obtain a valid session. It is also possible to obtain administrator credentials.
Cisco WebEx extension for Chrome includes an OS command injection vulnerability. This module serves a specially crafted web page using HTTPS. If a vulnerable version of the extension is installed and the web browser connects to Impact's web server, this module will deploys an OS agent.
Symantec Web Gateway Management Console Remote Code Execution Exploit
The Symantec Web Gateway Management Console before 5.2.5 allows some specially crafted entries to update the whitelist without validation. A lower-privileged but authorized management console user can bypass the whitelist validation using a specifically-modified script to create an unauthorized whitelist entry. This whitelist entry could potentially be leveraged in further malicious attempts against the network.
