HIGH KEV RANSOMWARE LAB

Microsoft Office Word MSDTJS

Title source: metasploit
STIX 2.1

Exploitation Summary

CVE-2022-30190 is actively exploited and listed in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog, added June 14, 2022, with confirmed use in ransomware campaigns. EIP tracks 97 public exploits from researchers including komomon, JMousqueton, onecloudemoji, including a Metasploit module exploits/windows/fileformat/word_msdtjs_rce.

AI-analyzed exploit summary This is a Python-based exploit for CVE-2022-30190 (Follina), which leverages a Microsoft Office MSDT vulnerability to achieve remote code execution via malicious Word documents. The script generates a weaponized .docx file that triggers arbitrary command execution or binary loading when opened.

Description

A remote code execution vulnerability exists when MSDT is called using the URL protocol from a calling application such as Word. An attacker who successfully exploits this vulnerability can run arbitrary code with the privileges of the calling application. The attacker can then install programs, view, change, or delete data, or create new accounts in the context allowed by the user’s rights. Please see the MSRC Blog Entry for important information about steps you can take to protect your system from this vulnerability.
