Loading vulnerability…
CVE-2011-4496 is a buffer overflow vulnerability in Aviosoft DTV Player 1.0.1.2. The issue is triggered when the application processes a crafted .plf playlist file. A remote attacker can induce the vulnerable application to open the malicious file, causing memory corruption due to improper bounds handling during playlist parsing, which can lead to arbitrary code execution in the context of the user running the application. Specific vulnerable function details are not provided in the available content.

This repository contains a single Metasploit module targeting a stack buffer overflow vulnerability (CVE-2011-4496) in Aviosoft Digital TV Player Professional version 1.0.1.2 for Windows. The exploit works by generating a malicious .plf playlist file (default name: msf.plf) that, when opened by the vulnerable application, triggers a buffer overflow and executes a ROP chain to bypass DEP, followed by user-supplied shellcode. The module allows the attacker to specify a payload, which is encoded and embedded in the file. The exploit is operational and can be used to achieve arbitrary code execution under the context of the user. The only endpoints involved are the crafted .plf file and references to the application's DLLs used in the ROP chain. The repository is structured as a typical Metasploit exploit module written in Ruby, with all logic contained in a single file.
