This module exploits a vulnerability in the SQLDMO.DLL control included in the Microsoft SQL Server application. The exploit is triggered when the Start() method processes a long string argument resulting in a stack-based buffer overflow. This module runs a malicious web site on the Core Impact Console and waits for an unsuspecting user to trigger the exploit by connecting to the web site. This module runs a web server waiting for vulnerable clients (Internet Explorer) to connect to it. When the client connects, it will try to install an agent by exploiting this vulnerability.
A remote code execution vulnerability exists in Microsoft Silverlight that can allow a specially crafted Silverlight application to access memory in an unsafe manner. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could run arbitrary code in the security context of the current user. This module runs a web server waiting for vulnerable clients to connect to it. When the client connects, it will try to install an agent by exploiting this vulnerability.
