Loading vulnerability…
A stack-based buffer overflow exists in the HTTP Server component of NetMechanica NetDecision prior to version 4.6.1. The vulnerability is triggered when a remote attacker sends an HTTP request with an excessively long URL, causing the application to crash due to improper bounds checking on the stack buffer.

This repository contains a single Metasploit auxiliary module targeting a directory traversal vulnerability (CVE-2012-1465) in NetDecision's TrafficGrapherServer.exe service. The exploit works by sending a specially crafted HTTP GET request to the target server (default port 8087), using multiple '...\' sequences in the URI to traverse directories and access arbitrary files. The user can specify which file to retrieve via the FILEPATH option (default: 'windows\system.ini'). If successful, the module downloads the file and saves it locally. The code is written in Ruby and leverages Metasploit's auxiliary and HTTP client modules. No detection or fake code is present; this is a functional file disclosure exploit.
This repository contains a single Metasploit module targeting a buffer overflow vulnerability in NetDecision 4.5.1's HTTP server (HttpSvr.exe) on Windows XP SP3. The exploit works by sending a specially crafted HTTP GET request with an overly long URI to the server, causing a buffer overflow and enabling remote code execution. The module includes a check method to fingerprint the vulnerable server by examining the 'Server' HTTP header. The payload is customizable via Metasploit and is delivered as part of the malicious request. The exploit is most effective when the victim is actively viewing the HttpSvr's window, as the overflow occurs in the context of the active window. The repository is structured as a standard Metasploit exploit module written in Ruby, and it references CVE-2012-1465. The only fingerprintable endpoints are the target executable path and the root HTTP URI.
