Description

This module exploits a stack-based buffer overflow in SonicPlayer ActiveX control (SonicMediaPlayer.dll) 3.0.0.1 installed by Roxio CinePlayer 3.2. By setting an overly long value to 'DiskType', an attacker can overrun a buffer and execute arbitrary code.

Module Options

To display the available options, load the module within the Metasploit console and run the commands 'show options' or 'show advanced':

msf > use exploit/windows/browser/roxio_cineplayer
msf exploit(roxio_cineplayer) > show targets
    ...targets...
msf exploit(roxio_cineplayer) > set TARGET < target-id >
msf exploit(roxio_cineplayer) > show options
    ...show and set options...
msf exploit(roxio_cineplayer) > exploit

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.
