Loading vulnerability…
CVE-2011-4135 is a set of directory traversal vulnerabilities in lmgrd, the FlexNet License Server Manager component of Flexera FlexNet Publisher 11.10. The issue affects functionality related to log file save, rename, and load operations. By supplying crafted path values, a remote attacker can traverse directories outside the intended log-file location and cause lmgrd to access attacker-controlled or unintended filesystem paths. According to the provided description, successful exploitation can lead to arbitrary code execution. The record notes a possible overlap with CVE-2011-1389.

This repository contains a single Metasploit module (modules/exploits/windows/license/flexnet_lmgrd_bof.rb) that exploits a stack buffer overflow vulnerability (CVE-2011-4135) in the FlexNet License Server Manager (lmgrd) service. The exploit targets specific vulnerable versions of lmgrd running on Windows XP SP3, including Autodesk Licensing Server Tools 11.5 and Alias License Tools 10.8.x. The vulnerability is triggered by sending a specially crafted network packet to the lmgrd service on TCP port 27000, exploiting an insecure memcpy operation. The module is capable of delivering a customizable Metasploit payload (such as Meterpreter or a shell) to achieve remote code execution with the privileges of the lmgrd service. The exploit includes options for brute-forcing reliability and jamming the server with multiple requests to increase the likelihood of success. The code is written in Ruby and is structured as a standard Metasploit exploit module, making use of the framework's payload and session handling capabilities.
