Microsoft Windows 7 Build 7601 (x86) local privilege escalation exploit.

This Metasploit module exploits a NULL pointer dereference vulnerability in MNGetpItemFromIndex(), which is reachable via a NtUserMNDragOver() system call. The NULL pointer dereference occurs because the xxxMNFindWindowFromPoint() function does not effectively check the validity of the tagPOPUPMENU objects it processes before passing them on to MNGetpItemFromIndex(), where the NULL pointer dereference will occur. This module has been tested against Windows 7 x86 SP0 and SP1. Offsets within the solution may need to be adjusted to work with other versions of Windows, such as Windows Server 2008.

Microsoft Windows suffers from a Desktop Bridge Virtual Registry NtLoadKey arbitrary file read / write privilege escalation vulnerability.

This Metasploit module will bypass UAC on Windows 8-10 by hijacking a special key in the Registry under the Current User hive, and inserting a custom command that will get invoked when any binary (.exe) application is launched. But slui.exe is an auto-elevated binary that is vulnerable to file handler hijacking. When we run slui.exe with changed Registry key (HKCU:SoftwareClassesexefileshellopencommand), it will run our custom command as Admin instead of slui.exe. The module modifies the registry in order for this exploit to work. The modification is reverted once the exploitation attempt has finished. The module does not require the architecture of the payload to match the OS. If specifying EXE::Custom your DLL should call ExitProcess() after starting the payload in a different process.

The handling of the virtual registry for desktop bridge applications can allow an application to create arbitrary files as system resulting in privilege escalation. This is because the fix for CVE-2018-0880 (MSRC case 42755) did not cover all similar cases which were reported at the same time in the issue.

This exploit permits an attacker to bypass UAC by hijacking a registry key during computerSecurity.exe (auto elevate windows binary) execution.

This exploit modifies a windows language registry key which causes some windows binaries to stick, including login which makes the session unusable. The key is in HKCU and can be modified without admin rights, but with a bypass UAC, all user sessions can be paralyzed by using reg.exe and user's NTUSER.DAT.

This Metasploit module modifies a registry key, but cleans up the key once the payload has been invoked. The module does not require the architecture of the payload to match the OS.

The Windows registry editor allows specially crafted .reg filenames to spoof the default registry dialog warning box presented to an end user. This can potentially trick unsavvy users into choosing the wrong selection shown on the dialog box. Furthermore, we can deny the registry editor its ability to show the default secondary status dialog box (Win 10), thereby hiding the fact that our attack was successful.

The Microsoft Windows kernel's Registry Virtualization does not safely open the real key for a virtualization location leading to enumerating arbitrary keys resulting in privilege escalation.

This Metasploit module exploits a flaw in the WSReset.exe file associated with the Windows Store. This binary has autoelevate privs, and it will run a binary file contained in a low-privilege registry location. By placing a link to the binary in the registry location, WSReset.exe will launch the binary as a privileged user.

This Metasploit module will bypass Windows UAC by hijacking a special key in the Registry under the current user hive, and inserting a custom command that will get invoked when Windows backup and restore is launched. It will spawn a second shell that has the UAC flag turned off. This module modifies a registry key, but cleans up the key once the payload has been invoked.

This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on affected installations of Microsoft Windows. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the Tracing functionality used by the Routing and Remote Access service. The issue results from the lack of proper permissions on registry keys that control this functionality. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to escalate privileges and execute code in the context of SYSTEM.

The VUPEN Vulnerability Research Team discovered a critical vulnerability in Microsoft Windows. The vulnerability is caused by a stack overflow error in the OpenType Compact Font Format (CFF) driver "ATMFD.dll" when processing certain operands within an OpenType font, which could be exploited by remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on a vulnerable Windows 7, Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2008 R2, and Windows Vista systems via a malicious font, or by local attackers to gain elevated privileges on Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 systems via a malicious application.

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.
