A stack-based buffer overflow exists in GCoreServer.exe, part of the Geutebrueck Gcore server (versions 1.3.8.42 and 1.4.2.37). The vulnerability is triggered by sending a specially crafted GET request with an excessively long URI, which overflows a stack buffer and allows for remote code execution.

This repository contains a single Metasploit module (Ruby file) that exploits a stack buffer overflow vulnerability (CVE-2017-11517) in Geutebrueck GCoreServer.exe, a component of the Geutebrueck GCore video surveillance system. The exploit targets Windows x64 systems running vulnerable versions of GCoreServer.exe (from 2003 up to July 2016, specifically 1.3.8.42 and 1.4.2.37) on TCP ports 13003 or 13004. No authentication is required. The module first fingerprints the target by requesting the '/statistics/runningmoduleslist.xml' endpoint to determine the server version. If a vulnerable version is detected, it crafts a malicious HTTP GET request that triggers a buffer overflow, allowing the attacker to execute arbitrary code with high privileges. The payload is customizable via Metasploit and typically results in a reverse shell or similar remote access. The exploit is operational and can be used to gain full control over affected systems. The repository is structured as a single Ruby file compatible with the Metasploit framework.
