A buffer overflow vulnerability exists in NIPrint 4.10, where remote attackers can trigger a buffer overflow by sending a long string to TCP port 515. This allows for the execution of arbitrary code on the affected system.

This repository contains a single Metasploit module exploit targeting a stack buffer overflow vulnerability in the Network Instrument NIPrint LPD service (CVE-2003-1141). The exploit is implemented in Ruby and is designed to be used within the Metasploit Framework. It targets the LPD service running on Windows systems (notably NIPrint3.EXE, Windows XP SP3, and Windows 7 x64) over TCP port 515. The exploit works by sending a specially crafted request to the LPD service, overflowing a buffer and overwriting the return address to execute arbitrary shellcode. The payload is customizable via Metasploit and can provide various post-exploitation capabilities, such as a reverse shell. The module is operational and requires the target service to be accessible over the network. No hardcoded IP addresses or domain names are present; the only fingerprintable endpoint is the TCP port 515 used by the LPD service.
