A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists in Zahir Accounting Enterprise Plus 6 (through build 10b) when processing crafted CSV files via the Import CSV File menu. An attacker can exploit this by supplying a specially crafted CSV file, leading to a buffer overflow on the stack.

This repository contains a single Metasploit module targeting a stack buffer overflow vulnerability (CVE-2018-17408) in Zahir Enterprise Plus version 6 build 10b and below. The exploit is triggered when a victim opens a specially crafted CSV file (default name: msf.csv) using the application's 'Import from other File' feature. The module constructs a malicious CSV file that overflows a buffer and overwrites the Structured Exception Handler (SEH), allowing execution of arbitrary code. The payload is customizable via Metasploit and can be up to 5000 bytes, with certain bad characters filtered. The exploit specifically references the DLL 'vclie100.bpl' as the source of the SEH return address. The attack vector is local, requiring user interaction to open the malicious file. The repository is a typical Metasploit exploit module written in Ruby, with all logic contained in a single file.
