Loading vulnerability…
A stack-based buffer overflow exists in Pirate Radio Destiny Media Player 1.61. The vulnerability is triggered when the application processes a .pls playlist file containing an overly long string, leading to a buffer overflow condition. This allows an attacker to overwrite the stack and potentially execute arbitrary code.

This repository contains a single Metasploit module targeting a stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability in Destiny Media Player 1.61 (CVE-2009-3429). The exploit is implemented in Ruby and leverages the Metasploit framework's FILEFORMAT exploit mixin. The module generates a malicious .m3u playlist file ('exploit_destiny.m3u' by default) containing a crafted buffer that overflows the application's stack when opened via the 'File -> Open Playlist' menu. The overflow allows for arbitrary code execution with a customizable payload (up to 800 bytes, avoiding specific bad characters). The exploit targets both a generic Destiny Media Player installation and Windows XP SP2 Spanish, with specific return addresses for each. The repository is operational and provides a working exploit for local code execution via a malicious file, requiring user interaction to trigger the vulnerability.
