This Metasploit module exploits a stack overflow in the FutureSoft TFTP Server 2000 product. By sending an overly long transfer-mode string, we were able to overwrite both the SEH and the saved EIP. A subsequent write-exception that will occur allows the transferring of execution to our shellcode via the overwritten SEH. This Metasploit module has been tested against Windows 2000 Professional and for some reason does not seem to work against Windows 2000 Server (could not trigger the overflow at all).

This Metasploit module exploits a stack overflow in the NetApi32 NetpManageIPCConnect function using the Workstation service in Windows 2000 SP4 and Windows XP SP2. In order to exploit this vulnerability, you must specify a the name of a valid Windows DOMAIN. It may be possible to satisfy this condition by using a custom dns and ldap setup, however that method is not covered here. Although Windows XP SP2 is vulnerable, Microsoft reports that Administrator credentials are required to reach the vulnerable code. Windows XP SP1 only requires valid user credentials. Also, testing shows that a machine already joined to a domain is not exploitable.

This Metasploit module exploits a stack buffer overflow in the Windows Media Unicast Service version 4.1.0.3930 (NUMS.exe). By sending a specially crafted FunnelConnect request, an attacker can execute arbitrary code under the "NetShowServices" user account. Windows Media Services 4.1 ships with Windows 2000 Server, but is not installed by default. NOTE: This service does NOT restart automatically. Successful, as well as unsuccessful exploitation attempts will kill the service which prevents additional attempts.

win32k.sys in Microsoft Windows 2000 / XP / 2003 suffers from a local kernel denial of service vulnerability related to SfnLOGONNOTIFY.

A vulnerability in the Windows kernel can be triggered via SMB in Microsoft Windows versions ranging from Windows 2000 through to Windows 7. This vulnerability allows an attacker to trigger a kernel pool corruption by sending a specially crafted SMB_COM_TRANSACTION2 request. Successful exploitation of this issue may result in remote code execution with kernel privileges, while failed attempts will result in a denial of service condition.

ECLIPSEDWING exploits the SMB vulnerability patched by MS08-67. It affects Microsoft Windows 2000, 2003, and XP. Note that this exploit is part of the recent public disclosure from the "Shadow Brokers" who claim to have compromised data from a team known as the "Equation Group", however, there is no author data available in this content. Consider this exploit hostile and unverified. For research purposes only. Description has been referenced from http://medium.com/@networksecurity.

Mandrake Linux Security Update Advisory - SGI developers discovered a remote DoS (Denial of Service) condition in the NFS statd server. rpc.statd did not ignore the SIGPIPE signal which would cause it to shutdown if a misconfigured or malicious peer terminated the TCP connection prematurely.

Mandrake Linux Security Update Advisory - Herbert Xu discovered that iproute can accept spoofed messages sent via the kernel netlink interface by other users on the local machine. This could lead to a local Denial of Service attack.

Mandrake Linux Security Update Advisory - Javier Fernandez-Sanguino Pena discovered two vulnerabilities in scripts included with the vim editor. The two scripts, tcltags and vimspell.sh created temporary files in an insecure manner which could allow a malicious user to execute a symbolic link attack or to create, or overwrite, arbitrary files with the privileges of the user invoking the scripts.

Secunia Security Advisory - Mandrake has issued an update for hylafax. This fixes some vulnerabilities, which can be exploited by malicious people to bypass certain security restrictions and by malicious users to compromise a vulnerable system.
