Description

This module exploits a buffer overflow found in the /search/results.stm application that comes with Sambar 6. This code is a direct port of Andrew Griffiths's SMUDGE exploit, the only changes made were to the nops and payload. This exploit causes the service to die, whether you provided the correct target or not.

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/http/sambar6_search_results
msf exploit(sambar6_search_results) > show targets
    ...targets...
msf exploit(sambar6_search_results) > set TARGET < target-id >
msf exploit(sambar6_search_results) > show options
    ...show and set options...
msf exploit(sambar6_search_results) > 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.
