Xcon 2005: Hacking Windows CE

Symantec Vulnerability Research SYMSA-2007-012 - Microsoft Windows CE suffers from a IGMP related denial of service vulnerability.

Windows Mobile version 6.5 TR (WinCE 5.2) MessageBox shellcode for ARM.

This Metasploit module exploits a stack buffer overflow vulnerability in the handling of the TextBytesAtom records by Microsoft PowerPoint Viewer. According to Microsoft, the PowerPoint Viewer distributed with Office 2003 SP3 and earlier, as well as Office 2004 for Mac, are vulnerable. NOTE: The vulnerable code path is not reachable on versions of Windows prior to Windows Vista.

Microsoft Windows Vista/7 suffers from a DLL hijacking vulnerability in lpksetup.exe.

Microsoft Windows Vista / 7 privilege escalation exploit that has UAC bypass.

Microsoft Windows Vista/Server 2008 nsiproxy.sys local kernel denial of service exploit.

This Metasploit module exploits a stack-based buffer overflow on DVD X Player 5.5 Pro and Standard. By supplying a long string of data in a plf file (playlist), the MediaPlayerCtrl.dll component will attempt to extract a filename out of the string, and then copy it on the stack without any proper bounds checking, which causes a buffer overflow, and results arbitrary code execution under the context of the user. This Metasploit module has been designed to target common Windows systems such as: Windows XP SP2/SP3, Windows Vista, and Windows 7.

Mandriva Linux Security Advisory 2012-081 - Security issues were identified and fixed in mozilla firefox. Mozilla developers identified and fixed several memory safety bugs in the browser engine used in Firefox and other Mozilla-based products. Using the Address Sanitizer tool, security researcher Aki Helin from OUSPG found that IDBKeyRange of indexedDB remains in the XPConnect hashtable instead of being unlinked before being destroyed. Security research firm iDefense reported that researcher wushi of team509 discovered a memory corruption on Windows Vista and Windows 7 systems with hardware acceleration disabled or using incompatible video drivers. Various other issues have also been addressed.

The vulnerability described in this document can be exploited by a malicious Web page to execute arbitrary code with low integrity. Active scripting must be enabled, and the present exploitation techniques require that font downloading be set to "Enable" or "Prompt" and that the "mailto:" protocol be present. (These requirements are satisfied by default on Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7.) The user is presented with a message box which must be dismissed before code execution can occur.

This Metasploit module exploits a vulnerability found in NTR ActiveX 1.1.8. The vulnerability exists in the Check() method, due to the insecure usage of strcat to build a URL using the bstrParams parameter contents, which leads to code execution under the context of the user visiting a malicious web page. In order to bypass DEP and ASLR on Windows Vista and Windows 7 JRE 6 is needed.

This Metasploit module exploits a vulnerability on the lrFileIOService ActiveX, as installed with HP LoadRunner 11.50. The vulnerability exists in the WriteFileString method, which allow the user to write arbitrary files. It's abused to drop a payload embedded in a dll, which is later loaded through the Init() method from the lrMdrvService control, by abusing an insecure LoadLibrary call. This Metasploit module has been tested successfully on IE8 on Windows XP. Virtualization based on the Low Integrity Process, on Windows Vista and 7, will stop this module because the DLL will be dropped to a virtualized folder, which isn't used by LoadLibrary.

This Metasploit module exploits a remote arbitrary file write vulnerability in SolidWorks Workgroup PDM 2014 SP2 and prior. For targets running Windows Vista or newer the payload is written to the startup folder for all users and executed upon next user logon. For targets before Windows Vista code execution can be achieved by first uploading the payload as an exe file, and then upload another mof file, which schedules WMI to execute the uploaded payload. This Metasploit module has been tested successfully on SolidWorks Workgroup PDM 2011 SP0 on Windows XP SP3 (EN) and Windows 7 SP1 (EN).

This Metasploit module exploits a vulnerability found in Windows Object Linking and Embedding (OLE) allowing arbitrary code execution, publicly known as "Sandworm". Platforms such as Windows Vista SP2 all the way to Windows 8, Windows Server 2008 and 2012 are known to be vulnerable.

This Metasploit module exploits a vulnerability found in Windows Object Linking and Embedding (OLE) allowing arbitrary code execution, publicly exploited in the wild as MS14-060 patch bypass. The Microsoft update tried to fix the vulnerability publicly known as "Sandworm". Platforms such as Windows Vista SP2 all the way to Windows 8, Windows Server 2008 and 2012 are known to be vulnerable. However, based on our testing, the most reliable setup is on Windows platforms running Office 2013 and Office 2010 SP2. And please keep in mind that some other setups such as using Office 2010 SP1 might be less stable, and sometimes may end up with a crash due to a failure in the CPackage::CreateTempFileName function.

This Metasploit module exploits a vulnerability found in Windows Object Linking and Embedding (OLE) allowing arbitrary code execution, bypassing the patch MS14-060, for the vulnerability publicly known as "Sandworm", on systems with Python for Windows installed. Windows Vista SP2 all the way to Windows 8, Windows Server 2008 and 2012 are known to be vulnerable. However, based on our testing, the most reliable setup is on Windows platforms running Office 2013 and Office 2010 SP2. Please keep in mind that some other setups such as those using Office 2010 SP1 may be less stable, and may end up with a crash due to a failure in the CPackage::CreateTempFileName function.

This Metasploit module exploits a well known remote code execution exploit after establishing encrypted control communications with a Data Protector agent. This allows exploitation of Data Protector agents that have been configured to only use encrypted control communications. This exploit works by executing the payload with Microsoft PowerShell so will only work against Windows Vista or newer. Tested against Data Protector 9.0 installed on Windows Server 2008 R2.

Solaris version 11.4 xscreensaver local privilege escalation exploit.

This Metasploit module exploits a vulnerability in xscreensaver versions since 5.06 on unpatched Solaris 11 systems which allows users to gain root privileges. xscreensaver allows users to create a user-owned file at any location on the filesystem using the -log command line argument introduced in version 5.06. This module uses xscreensaver to create a log file in /usr/lib/secure/, overwrites the log file with a shared object, and executes the shared object using the LD_PRELOAD environment variable. This module has been tested successfully on xscreensaver version 5.15 on Solaris 11.1 (x86) and xscreensaver version 5.15 on Solaris 11.3 (x86).

A low impact information disclosure vulnerability in the setuid root xlock binary distributed with Solaris may allow local users to read partial contents of sensitive files. Due to the fact that target files must be in a very specific format, exploitation of this flaw to escalate privileges in a realistic scenario is unlikely.

A difficult to exploit heap-based buffer overflow in setuid root whodo and w binaries distributed with Solaris allows local users to corrupt memory and potentially execute arbitrary code in order to escalate privileges.

NetBSD uses the ptrace(2) system call to trace and debug other processes. The debugging process can also modify the internal registers, including the status (PSL) register, for the process being debugged. Besides the normal user-accessible flags, the VAX hardware also stores information about privilege levels and used stacks in the PSL. Those flags are only altered via the instruction REI (return from interrupt) or LDPCTX (load process context) and cannot be modified while running in "user" mode. NetBSD security page here.
