This repository contains a single Metasploit module (Ruby file) that exploits CVE-2013-2730, a sandbox bypass vulnerability in Adobe Reader X 10.1.4 on Windows 7 SP1. The exploit leverages a buffer overflow in the AdobeCollabSync component, which can be triggered from a low integrity AcroRd32.exe (Adobe Reader) process due to overly permissive sandbox rules. The module works by writing a ROP chain and shellcode to specific registry keys, then launching AdobeCollabSync.exe to trigger the overflow and execute the payload with medium integrity privileges. The exploit is operational and allows for privilege escalation from a sandboxed (low integrity) process to a higher privilege (medium integrity) context. The code is structured as a standard Metasploit local exploit, with cleanup routines to remove malicious registry keys after exploitation. The only file in the repository is the Metasploit module itself, written in Ruby.
