Blue Coat Authentication and Authorization Agent (BCAAA) 5 Buffer Overflow

Description

This module exploits a stack buffer overflow in process bcaaa-130.exe (port 16102), which comes as part of the Blue Coat Authentication proxy. Please note that by default, this exploit will attempt up to three times in order to successfully gain remote code execution (in some cases, it takes as many as five times). This can cause your activity to look even more suspicious. To modify the number of exploit attempts, set the ATTEMPTS option.

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