Loading vulnerability…
A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists in magentservice.exe, a component of the server in HP LoadRunner 11.00 prior to patch 4. The vulnerability is triggered by a crafted size value in a network packet, which allows remote attackers to overflow a stack buffer and execute arbitrary code. The issue was initially misattributed to HP Diagnostics Server, but HP clarified that the affected product is HP LoadRunner.

This repository contains a single Metasploit module (hp_magentservice.rb) that exploits a stack buffer overflow vulnerability in HP Diagnostics Server magentservice.exe (version 9.10) on Windows. The exploit targets the service over TCP port 23472 (default), sending a specially crafted packet that overflows a buffer and overwrites the SEH handler, allowing for arbitrary code execution. The module supports customizable Metasploit payloads (up to 1000 bytes, avoiding null bytes) and is operational, providing remote code execution if successful. The code is written in Ruby and follows standard Metasploit module structure, including references to CVE-2011-4789 and other advisories. No hardcoded IP addresses or URLs are present, but the TCP port 23472 is fingerprintable as the service endpoint.
