Minishare 1.4.1 Buffer Overflow
Description
This is a simple buffer overflow for the minishare web server. This flaw affects all versions prior to 1.4.2. This is a plain stack buffer overflow that requires a "jmp esp" to reach the payload, making this difficult to target many platforms at once. This module has been successfully tested against 1.4.1. Version 1.3.4 and below do not seem to be vulnerable.

- 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.
