Loading vulnerability…
A stack-based buffer overflow exists in the DPC Proxy server (DpcProxy.exe) component of ASUS Remote Console (ARC/ASMB3) versions 2.0.0.19 and 2.0.0.24. The vulnerability is triggered when a remote attacker sends a long string to TCP port 623, resulting in a buffer overflow condition that can be exploited to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

This repository contains a single Metasploit module (modules/exploits/windows/misc/asus_dpcproxy_overflow.rb) that exploits a stack buffer overflow vulnerability in Asus Dpcproxy versions 2.0.0.19 up to 2.0.0.23 (CVE-2008-1491) on Windows. The exploit targets the service running on TCP port 623, sending a specially crafted buffer to trigger the overflow and execute arbitrary code. The module allows the user to select a payload (up to 400 bytes, avoiding certain bad characters), which will be executed with the privileges of the vulnerable service. The exploit is operational and can be used to gain remote code execution on affected systems. The code is written in Ruby and is structured as a standard Metasploit exploit module, including all necessary metadata, payload handling, and network communication routines.
