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.

Ultidev Cassini Webserver Arbitrary File Download Ultidev Cassini Webserver File Download Windows Exploits / Remote File Disclosure SCADAPRO
Ultr@VNC Server Error Logging DoS The logging function used by the Ultr@VNC server is affected by a limited buffer-overflow caused by two strcat calls which add a Windows error message to the output buffer causing the server to crash and stop responding to further connections. Windows Denial of Service / Remote Impact Professional
Ultra Mini HTTPD Stack Buffer Overflow Exploit The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error within Mini HTTPD when processing HTTP GET Request. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow via an overly long, specially-crafted argument passed to the affected command. Arbitrary code can be directly executed by overwriting a return address. Windows Exploits / Remote Impact Professional
Ultra Mini HTTPD Stack Buffer Overflow Exploit Update The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error within Mini HTTPD when processing HTTP GET Request. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow via an overly long, specially-crafted argument passed to the affected command. Arbitrary code can be directly executed by overwriting a return address. This update only adds CVE Number. Windows Exploits / Remote Impact Professional
Ultra Office Control ActiveX Exploit The Ultra Office Control ActiveX control (OfficeCtrl.ocx) is vulnerable to a stack-based buffer overflow. By persuading a victim to visit a specially-crafted Web page that passes an overly long string to the HttpUpload() method, a remote attacker could overflow a buffer and execute arbitrary code on the system with the privileges of the current user or cause the victim's browser to crash.

Windows Exploits / Client Side Impact Professional
UltraISO CCD and IMG Buffer Overflow Exploit A stack-based buffer overflow in UltraISO allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code via crafted .CCD and .IMG file.

Windows Exploits / Client Side Impact Professional
UltraISO CUE Buffer Overflow Exploit The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error within the parsing of .CUE files, this can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow via a .CUE file with an overly long file string.

Exploits / Client Side Impact Professional
UltraISO daemon DLL Hijacking Exploit UltraISO is prone to a vulnerability that may allow execution of daemon.dll if this dll is located in the same folder than .ISZ file. Windows Exploits / Client Side Impact Professional
UltraISO MDS Buffer Overflow Exploit A stack-based buffer overflow in UltraISO allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code via a specially crafted .MDS file. Windows Exploits / Client Side Impact Professional
UltraVNC Client Integer Overflow Exploit UltraVNC client is prone to integer-overflow vulnerabilities because they fail to properly validate data supplied by the VNC server.

Windows Exploits / Client Side Impact Professional
UltraVNC Viewer vnclang DLL Hijacking Exploit UltraVNC Viewer is prone to a vulnerability that may allow execution of vnclang.dll if this dll is located in the same folder than .VNC file. The attacker must entice a victim into opening a specially crafted .VNC file. This file and the associated binary may be delivered to a user through remote WebDAV shares. An attacker may exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code. Windows Exploits / Client Side Impact Professional
