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.

Cisco Linksys PlayerPT ActiveX Control Buffer Overflow Exploit Update
This module exploits a vulnerability in the PlayerPT.ocx module included in the Cisco Linksys WVC200 Wireless-G PTZ Internet Video Camera application. The exploit is triggered when the SetSource() method processes a crafted argument resulting in a buffer overflow. This update adds support for Internet Explorer 8 and 9 and Windows 7, detected automatically.
The vulnerability is due to an error while parsing Parts field in ABC files which can result in an integer overflow in the libmodplug library used by VLC Media Player.
DJ Studio Pro contains a buffer prone to exploitation via an overly long string. The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in the application when handling .pls files. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow via a specially crafted .pls file. This overflow allows to overwrite an SEH pointer, generate and exception and execute arbitrary code.

TRENDnet SecurView Internet Camera UltraMJCam OpenFileDlg Buffer Overflow Exploit
A vulnerability exists in TRENDnet SecurView Internet Camera's ActiveX control that can be exploited by sending a long string of data to the OpenFileDlg() function.
This module exploits a vulnerability in Oracle Java taking advantages of the java.sql.DriverManager class. The specific flaw exists within the usage of java.sql.DriverManager. The issue lies in an implicit call to toString() that is made within a doPrivileged block. This flaw allows an unprivileged Java applet to escape the sandbox and execute arbitrary code on the target machine with the privileges of the current user. This vulnerability was one of the 2013's Pwn2Own challenges.
The DRDA protocol dissector in Wireshark can enter an infinite loop when processing an specially crafted DRDA packet with the iLength field set to 0, causing Wireshark to stop responding.
Microsoft Windows Win32k Font Parsing Vulnerability DoS (MS13-036)
This module exploits a vulnerability in Windows kernel (win32k.sys) when a crafted TTF font is open. WARNING: This is an early release module. This is not the final version of this module. It is a pre-released version in order to deliver a module as quickly as possible to our customers that may be useful in some situations. Since this module is not the final version it may contain bugs or have limited functionality and may not have complete or accurate documentation.
The default Java security properties configuration does not restrict access to certain objects in the com.sun.jmx.mbeanserver packages. This flaw allows an unprivileged Java applet to escape the sandbox and execute arbitrary code on the target machine with the privileges of the current user.
Ricoh DC DL-10 SR10 FTP USER Command Buffer Overflow Exploit
Ricoh DC's DL-10 SR10 FTP Server is prone to a buffer-overflow vulnerability when handling data through the USER command. This can be exploited by supplying a long string of data to the affected command.

Schneider Electric Serial Modbus Driver Buffer Overflow Exploit
The vulnerability is a buffer overflow in Schneider Electric OPC factory Suite which bundle the vulnerable component Schneider Electric Modbus Serial Driver (ModbusDrv.exe).
Some Windows kernel versions are susceptible to a remote denial-of-service vulnerability. This issue allows remote attackers to crash affected kernels, denying further network service to legitimate users (MS06-007).
This module exploits a stack-based buffer overflow in WINSRV.DLL in the Client Server Runtime System (CSRSS) process. Allows local users to gain privileges via a specially-designed application that provides console window information with a long FaceName value.
This module exploits a stack-based buffer overflow in Mailenable smtp for Windows, allowing remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via AUTH command input.
This module exploits a path traversal vulnerability in Novell ZENworks Asset Management. The flaw exists within the rtrlet component. This process listens on TCP port 8080. When handling an unauthenticated file upload the process does not properly sanitize the path. Directory traversal can be used to drop a file in an arbitrary location and a null byte inserted into the filename to provide arbitrary extension.
CyberLink Power2Go is prone to a vulnerability that may allow the execution of any library file named dwmapi.dll, if this dll is located in the same folder than a .P2G file.
