Loading vulnerability…
The BIDIB.BIDIBCtrl.1 ActiveX control in BIDIB.ocx 10.9.3.0, as used in Black Ice Barcode SDK 5.01, exposes a method DownloadImageFileURL that allows remote attackers to download and store arbitrary files on the victim's system. The attacker can specify the origin URL and the local filename, enabling the download of potentially malicious files to arbitrary locations on the target system.

This repository contains a single Metasploit module targeting a vulnerability (CVE-2008-2683) in the Black Ice Cover Page ActiveX Control (BIImgFrm.ocx 12.0.0.0) and a similar issue in BIDIB.ocx (10.9.3.0). The exploit abuses the 'DownloadImageFileURL' method to place arbitrary files (including executables and MOF files) on the victim's Windows system (pre-Vista). The module sets up an HTTP server that delivers a malicious HTML page with embedded VBScript, which uses the vulnerable ActiveX control to download and write files to sensitive locations. The MOF file is placed in the WMI directory to trigger execution of the payload via Windows Management Instrumentation. The exploit is operational, providing remote code execution if the victim visits the attacker's page with a vulnerable configuration. The main file is written in Ruby and is structured as a typical Metasploit exploit module, leveraging Metasploit's payload generation and HTTP server capabilities.
