Exploitation Summary

EIP tracks 2 public exploits for CVE-2012-10057. PoCs published by Metasploit, Unknown, juan vazquez, including Metasploit module exploits/windows/fileformat/ispvm_xcf_ispxcf.

AI-analyzed exploit summary This Metasploit module exploits a buffer overflow in ispVM System 18.0.2 by crafting a malicious .xcf file with an overly long version attribute, leading to arbitrary code execution. The exploit leverages a known return address in MSVCP60.dll to redirect execution to the payload.

Description

Lattice Semiconductor ispVM System v18.0.2 contains a buffer overflow vulnerability in its handling of .xcf project files. When parsing the version attribute of the ispXCF XML tag, the application fails to properly validate input length, allowing a specially crafted file to overwrite memory on the stack. This can result in arbitrary code execution under the context of the user who opens the file. The vulnerability is triggered locally by opening a malicious .xcf file and does not require elevated privileges.
