Core Certified Exploits

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.

Title Description Date Added CVE Link Exploit Platform Exploit Type Product Name
Advantech WebAccess SCADA Webvrpcs ViewDll1 Buffer Overflow Exploit The specific flaw exists within the implementation of the 0x138bd IOCTL in the webvrpcs process. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of the length of user-supplied data prior to copying it to a fixed-length stack-based buffer. An attacker can leverage this functionality to execute code under the context of Administrator. Windows Exploits / Remote Impact
SurgeMail Mail Server Exploit This module exploits a buffer overflow in SurgeMail Mail Server and installs an agent into the target host. A buffer overflow vulnerability is located in the function which handles the real CGI executables. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow via an overly long, specially-crafted argument passed to this module. Windows Exploits / Remote Impact Professional
WireShark SNMP Dissector DoS This module exploits a vulnerability in the WireShark SNMP dissector, sending a specially crafted SNMP packet, causing WireShark to crash. Windows Denial of Service / Remote Impact Professional
Advantech WebAccess Webvrpcs Service DrawSrv Untrusted Pointer Dereference Exploit The specific flaw exists within the implementation of the 0x2723 IOCTL in the webvrpcs process. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of a user-supplied value prior to dereferencing it as a pointer. An attacker can leverage this functionality to execute code under the context of Administrator. Windows Exploits / Remote Impact
Dup Scout Enterprise Login Buffer Overflow Exploit This module exploits a stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability in the web interface of Dup Scout Enterprise caused by improper bounds checking on the login process sent to the built-in web server. Windows Exploits / Remote Impact
Joomla UsersModelRegistration Admin Registration Vulnerability Exploit The register method in the UsersModelRegistration class in controllers/user.php in the Users component in Joomla! before 3.6.4 allows remote attackers to gain privileges by leveraging incorrect use of unfiltered data when registering on a site. This registration works even when registration has been disabled.



This module exploits this vulnerability to add an administrator user to the Joomla database. Notice that this account could need registration confirmation (activation).
Linux Exploits / Remote Impact Professional
IIS HTR ChunkedEncoding exploit update This update adds support for Windows 2000 SP0 and fixes a reliability issue. The module exploits a vulnerability in the .HTR ISAPI filter in early versions of IIS. Windows Exploits / Remote Impact Professional
Disk Pulse Enterprise Server POST Request Buffer Overflow Exploit Disk Pulse server is prone to a buffer-overflow vulnerability when handling a crafted POST request, this can trigger an overflow in a finite-sized internal memory buffer, and install an agent with SYSTEM priviledges. Windows Exploits / Remote Impact Professional
IIS IDA-IDQ exploit update This update adds support for Windows NT4 for the IDA-IDQ exploit Windows Exploits / Remote Impact Professional
Jenkins JRMP Java Library Deserialization Vulnerability Remote Code Execution Exploit The remoting module in Jenkins before 1.650 and LTS before 1.642.2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by opening a JRMP listener. Windows, Linux Exploits / Remote Impact Professional
McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator - Protection Pilot HTTP exploit This module exploits a buffer overflow in McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator before 3.5.0.720 and ProtectionPilot before 1.1.1.126.
