This repository contains a single Metasploit module (abbs_amp_lst.rb) that exploits a buffer overflow vulnerability (CVE-2019-5621) in ABBS Audio Media Player 3.1 on Windows XP SP3 and Windows 7 SP1. The exploit works by generating a specially crafted .lst playlist file that, when opened by the vulnerable application, triggers a buffer overflow and executes arbitrary code with the privileges of the user. The module allows the attacker to select a Metasploit payload, which is embedded in the malicious file. The exploit is weaponized, as it is part of the Metasploit framework and supports customizable payloads. The only fingerprintable endpoint is the crafted .lst file, which must be delivered to and opened by the target user. The repository is structured as a single Ruby file following Metasploit conventions, with all exploit logic contained within the file.
