Loading vulnerability…
MJM QuickPlayer (MJM Player) version 2010 contains a stack-based buffer overflow in its .s3m music-file parser. Improper bounds checking when processing a crafted .s3m file permits memory overwrite and arbitrary code execution. Exploitation uses a crafted payload with return-oriented programming techniques to bypass DEP and ASLR and requires a user to open the malicious file.

This repository contains a single Metasploit module (mjm_quickplayer_s3m.rb) that exploits a stack buffer overflow vulnerability (CVE-2011-10023) in MJM QuickPlayer 1.00 beta 60a and QuickPlayer 2010 for Windows. The exploit works by generating a specially crafted .s3m file (default name: song.s3m) that, when opened in the vulnerable application, triggers a buffer overflow, bypassing DEP and ASLR protections. The module supports multiple targets and uses ROP chains tailored for each version. The payload is customizable and can execute arbitrary code, such as a reverse shell, on the victim's machine. The exploit is weaponized, as it is part of the Metasploit framework and allows for easy payload customization. The only fingerprintable endpoint is the malicious .s3m file itself, which must be opened by the victim to trigger the exploit.
