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.

CA Total Defense UNCWS Web Service exportReport Remote Code Execution Exploit
The UNCWS Web Service component of CA Total Defense listens for SOAP requests. The exportReport method makes use of the uncsp_GenerateReports_Dashboard stored procedure, which is vulnerable to SQL Injection. A remote unauthenticated attacker can exploit this to execute arbitrary code on a vulnerable machine with SYSTEM privileges.

Exploits/Remote Code Execution
Impact
IBM Personal Communications Buffer Overflow Exploit
IBM Personal Communications is prone to a stack based buffer overflow when parsing a malformed WS file. This module exploits this flaw to archive a clientside code execution.
AT TFTP Server Long Filename Buffer Overflow Exploit Update
The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error during the processing of TFTP Read/Write request packet types. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow by sending a specially crafted packet with an overly long filename field.
This update ensures that the program receives all data.
Microsoft Expression Design wintab32 DLL Hijacking Exploit (MS12-022)
Microsoft Expression Design 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 .DESIGN file.
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.
Microsoft Windows Remote Desktop Protocol DoS (MS12-020)
This module triggers a memory corruption vulnerability in the Remote Desktop Service by sending a malformed packet to the 3389/TCP port.
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.
Oracle Java Web Start XXaltjvm Option Command Line Injection Exploit
Argument injection vulnerability in the URI handler in Java Deployment Toolkit allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via the -J argument to javaws.exe, which is processed by the launch method.
Oracle Java Web Start XXaltjvm Option Command Line Injection Exploit
Argument injection vulnerability in the URI handler in Java Deployment Toolkit allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via the -J argument to javaws.exe, which is processed by the launch method.
Computer Associates eTrust Secure Content Manager DoS
The eCS component (ECSQdmn.exe) in CA ETrust Secure Content Manager 8.0 and CA Gateway Security 8.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted request to port 1882, involving an incorrect integer calculation and a heap-based buffer overflow.
This module exploits a remote buffer overflow in the streamprocess.exe service included in the Citrix Provisioning Services application by sending a malformed packet to the 6905/UDP port.
This module exploits a remote buffer overflow in the Motorola Netopia netOctopus SDCS server service.
The vulnerability exists within the code responsible for parsing client requests. When reading in a request from the network, a 32-bit integer is read in that specifies the number of bytes that follow. This value is not validated, and is then used to read data into a fixed-size stack buffer. This results in an exploitable stack buffer overflow.
This vulnerability exists within the handling of MixerSequencer objects. When this object is used to play a MIDI file, the GM_Song structure is populated with song data. In particular, it stores a integer value from the file and uses it later as an index into an array of function pointers. If this value is over 128 the process can be made to call a pointer outside the array.
WebKit in Android 2.1 does not properly validate floating-point data, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted HTML document, related to non-standard NaN representation.
CA iTechnology iGateway Debug Mode Buffer Overflow Exploit
The CA iGateway component, contains a buffer overflow vulnerability due to improper bounds checking on HTTP GET requests by the iGateway component when debug mode is enabled.
Trend Micro Control Manager CmdProcessor.exe AddTask Remote Buffer Overflow Exploit
The CmdProcessor.exe service of Trend Micro Control Manager is prone to a stack-based buffer overflow, which can be exploited by remote unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary code by sending a specially crafted IPC packet to the vulnerable service.
SlimFTPd LIST Command Remote Buffer Overflow Exploit
SlimFTPd server is prone to a stack buffer overflow when sending a LIST command with an overly-long argument. The attacker needs to be authenticated, so a successful login is required for the exploit to work.
Sunway Force Control SCADA SMNP NetDBServer Buffer Overflow Exploit
A stack based buffer overflow in the SNMP NetDBServer service of Sunway Forcecontrol is triggered when sending an overly long string to the listening service on port 2001.
Microsoft ASP.NET Hash Table Collisions DoS (MS11-100) Update
This module sends HTTP requests with specially crafted data making the ASP.NET subsystem consume lot of resources. This attack prevents the victim server from processing requests from legitimate clients and probably will make the server non-operational.
This update fixes an issue when launching the module from an agent running in a Linux system.
Traq is vulnerable to an authentication bypass vulnerability, this module exploits this vulnerability in order to install a plugin hook to ultimately install an agent in the target host.
