CVE-2014-0322 is a use-after-free vulnerability in Microsoft Internet Explorer 9 and 10. The flaw can be triggered via crafted JavaScript involving CMarkup and the onpropertychange attribute of a script element, causing Internet Explorer to access freed memory. Successful exploitation can corrupt process memory and redirect execution flow, allowing arbitrary code execution in the context of the logged-in user. The vulnerability was exploited in the wild as a zero-day, including in watering-hole and strategic web compromise operations.

This repository contains a Metasploit module that exploits a use-after-free vulnerability (CVE-2014-0322) in Microsoft Internet Explorer 10 on Windows 7 SP1, as used in the wild during 'Operation SnowMan' in 2014. The exploit leverages a malicious SWF (Flash) file to bypass ASLR and DEP protections, and delivers a customizable Metasploit payload (such as a reverse shell) to the victim. The module serves a crafted HTML/JavaScript page and SWF file to the target browser. The exploit is triggered when a user with a vulnerable configuration visits the attacker's web server. The repository consists of a single Ruby file, which is a standard Metasploit exploit module, and includes embedded JavaScript and HTML templates for the browser attack. The main fingerprintable endpoint is the SWF file loaded by the exploit. The module is operational and allows for payload customization within the Metasploit framework.
