Description

This module exploits a format string vulnerability in the lg_sprintf function as implemented in liblocal.dll on EMC Networker products. This module exploits the vulnerability by using a specially crafted RPC call to the program number 0x5F3DD, version 0x02, and procedure 0x06. This module has been tested successfully on EMC Networker 7.6 SP3 on Windows XP SP3 and Windows 2003 SP2 (DEP bypass).

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.
