Loading vulnerability…
A stack-based buffer overflow exists in the ICQ parsing routines of the ISS Protocol Analysis Module (PAM) component, affecting various RealSecure, Proventia, and BlackICE products. The vulnerability is triggered by a specially crafted SRV_MULTI response containing a SRV_USER_ONLINE or SRV_META_USER response packet with excessively long nickname, firstname, lastname, or email address fields. This allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected systems. The vulnerability was notably exploited by the Witty worm.

This repository contains a single Metasploit exploit module targeting a stack buffer overflow in the ISS BlackICE and RealSecure products (CVE-2004-0362), specifically in the iss-pam1.dll ICQ parser. The exploit is implemented in Ruby and leverages the Metasploit framework's UDP support. It constructs a specially crafted UDP packet that triggers the overflow, allowing for arbitrary code execution as LocalSystem on vulnerable Windows systems. The module supports multiple targets, including various versions of Windows NT, 2000, and XP, with specific return addresses for each. The exploit can be sent to any UDP port (default randomized) and can be broadcast, making it suitable for wide targeting. The payload is customizable via Metasploit and is delivered as part of the overflow. The repository is operational and ready for use within the Metasploit framework.
