Poptop Negative Read Overflow
Description
This is an exploit for the Poptop negative read overflow. This will work against versions prior to 1.1.3-b3 and 1.1.3-20030409, but I currently do not have a good way to detect Poptop versions. The server will by default only allow 4 concurrent manager processes (what we run our code in), so you could have a max of 4 shells at once. Using the current method of exploitation, our socket will be closed before we have the ability to run code, preventing the use of Findsock.

- Collect and share all the information you need to conduct a successful and efficient penetration test
- Simulate complex attacks against your systems and users
- Test your defenses to make sure they’re ready
- Automate Every Step of Your Penetration Test
Time is precious, so I don’t want to do something manually that I can automate. Leveraging the Metasploit Framework when automating any task keeps us from having to re-create the wheel as we can use the existing libraries and focus our efforts where it matters.
