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.

National Instruments LabWindows/CVI, LabVIEW ActiveX Remote Code Execution
This module will receive HTTP requests from vulnerable clients and install agents on them.
Microsoft Windows Win32k NULL Page Vulnerability Exploit (MS13-081) Update
This module exploits a vulnerability in "win32k.sys" by calling to the "TrackPopupMenuEx" function. This update adds support to Windows 7 64 bits and Windows 2008 R2.
IBM Lotus Quickr For Domino qp2 ActiveX Control Heap Overflow Exploit
A heap overflow in the ActiveX control qp2.cab in IBM Lotus Quickr for Domino allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted argument to the Attachment_Names method.
Sophos AntiVirus PDF Key Lenght Vulnerability Exploit
A Buffer Overflow exist in Sophos Antivirus when parsing encrypted revision 3 PDF files by reading the encryption key contents onto a fixed length stack buffer.
Mac OS X
Exploits/Client Side
Impact
Aloaha PDF Suite Buffer Overflow Exploit
Aloaha PDF Suite is prone to a security vulnerability when processing PDF files. This vulnerability could be exploited by a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target machine by enticing Aloaha users to open a specially crafted PDF file.
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. This update adds support for Mac OS X 10.7.4 (i386).
This module exploits a TinyWebGallery local file-include vulnerability because TinyWebGallery fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input. The module takes advantage of the logging capabilities of the attacked software to remotely execute arbitrary code. This update fixes some issues related with an updated library. Support for various platforms was added.
MS SMB 2.0 Negociate Protocol Request Remote Exploit Update 3
This module exploits a vulnerability in srv2.sys via a SMB 2 malformed packet. This Update adds support for attacking over IPv6 and additional support for Windows Server 2008
The DefaultActionMapper class in Apache Struts2 supports a method for short-circuit navigation state changes by prefixing parameters with "action:" or "redirect:". The information contained in these prefixes is not properly sanitized before being evaluated as OGNL expressions on the server side, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary Java code on the server. This module exploits the vulnerability in any web application built on top of vulnerable versions of the Apache Struts 2 framework.
This module exploits a vulnerability present in PineApp Mail-SeCure. The specific flaw exists within the component ldapsynchnow.php, which lacks proper sanitization, thus allowing command injection.

Microsoft Windows Win32k NULL Page Vulnerability Exploit (MS13-081)
This module exploits a vulnerability in "win32k.sys" by calling to the "TrackPopupMenuEx" function.
Nginx HTTP Server Chuncked Encoding Buffer Overflow Exploit
This module exploits a buffer overflow vulnerability present in Nginx by bypassing the stack cookie protection and by reordering the TCP packets to make it reliable.
Oracle WebLogic Server Apache Connector Exploit Update
Exploits a buffer overflow in the Apache Connector of Oracle WebLogic Server (formerly known as BEA WebLogic Server). The target path used when launching this module against an Apache Server must be handled by the Apache Connector or the exploit will not succeed. This update changes the default connection method for the module.
This module exploits a file disclosure vulnerability on Foscam IP cameras. Due to improper access restrictions, it is possible for a remote unauthenticated attacker to read arbitrary files from the /tmpfs/ and /log/ directories. This can be exploited to obtain valuable information such as access credentials, Wi-Fi configuration and other sensitive information in plain text.
This module exploits a vulnerability in Oracle Java. The BytePackedRaster.verify() method in Oracle Java versions prior to 7u25 is vulnerable to a signed integer overflow that allows bypassing of "dataBitOffset" boundary checks. This vulnerability allows for remote code execution.
Microsoft Windows Telephony Service exploit Update
This module connects to Telephony Service and sends a message via lineSetAppPriorityW winapi32 producing a buffer overflow and installs an agent. This update fixes a bug that occurs when this module is launched by RPT, with a newer Windows platform such as Windows Seven as target.
This module exploits a vulnerability in Oracle Java. The vulnerability is an invalid array indexing that exists within the native storeImageArray() function inside jre/bin/awt.dll.
Oracle Java IntegerInterleavedRaster Signed Integer Overflow Exploit
This module exploits a vulnerability in Oracle Java. The vulnerability is an invalid array indexing that exists within the native IntegerInterleavedRaster.verify() function inside jre/bin/awt.dll
