In this blogpost, we’ll briefly describe how we developed a DoS module for CVE-2022-21907. Instead of viewing it in a result-oriented way, we’ll approach it from a research standpoint, describing the process of developing this module for Core Impact.
With cybersecurity threats perpetually looming, many organizations have come to rely on penetration testing to assess their security stance and uncover weaknesses. According to the 2023 Pen Testing Report, 86% of respondents reported they pen test at least once a year.
As security threats persist, cybersecurity professionals are increasingly relying on penetration testing to uncover weaknesses and assess their security stance. According to the 2023 Pen Testing Report, 94% of respondents reported pen testing was at least somewhat important to their security posture.
Making a decision on a new cybersecurity tool is never easy—particularly when it’s unclear how rival products compare. It’s tempting to simply type “product vs. product” into Google and see if one stands out as the clear favorite. However, sometimes you can find that two products have been mistakenly grouped together and aren’t actually in competition, but rather, they are in separate categories.
I wanted to write this blog to show the analysis I did in the context of developing the Core Impact exploit “Win32k Window Object Type Confusion” that abuses the CVE-2022-21882 vulnerability.
It’s based on the existing Proof of Concept (POC), which is both interesting and quite complex.
While the Core Impact team is hard at work to provide and enhance the most comprehensive pen testing tool, we want to be sure to regularly check in with those who matter most—our customers! That’s why we pull back the curtain every quarter to provide a look behind the scenes and show you what’s on the horizon.
