Loading vulnerability…
A stack-based buffer overflow exists in Trend Micro OfficeScan Corporate Edition 8.0 Patch 2 build 1189 and earlier, and 7.3 Patch 3 build 1314 and earlier. The vulnerability is triggered by a long encrypted password, which overflows a stack buffer in cgiChkMasterPwd.exe, policyserver.exe (via cgiABLogon.exe), and potentially other components. This allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (crash).

This repository contains a single Metasploit module (modules/exploits/windows/http/trendmicro_officescan.rb) that exploits a stack buffer overflow vulnerability in Trend Micro OfficeScan 7.3.0.1293 (CVE-2008-1365). The exploit targets the cgiChkMasterPwd.exe component, which runs with SYSTEM privileges and is accessible via HTTP POST requests on the default port 8080. The module constructs a specially crafted POST request to the endpoint /officescan/console/cgi/cgiChkMasterPwd.exe, overflowing the stack and injecting shellcode that is executed with SYSTEM privileges. The payload is customizable and leverages Metasploit's payload framework, allowing for arbitrary code execution. The exploit is operational and requires the vulnerable OfficeScan version to be running on Windows 2000. The repository is structured as a typical Metasploit module, with all exploit logic contained in a single Ruby file.
