Ghostscript Command Execution via Format String
Description
This module exploits a format string vulnerability in Ghostscript versions before 10.03.1 to achieve a SAFER sandbox bypass and execute arbitrary commands. This vulnerability is reachable via libraries such as ImageMagick. This exploit only works against Ghostscript versions 10.03.0 and 10.01.2. Some offsets adjustement will probably be needed to make it work with other versions.

- Collect and share all the information you need to conduct a successful and efficient penetration test
- Simulate complex attacks against your systems and users
- Test your defenses to make sure they’re ready
- Automate Every Step of Your Penetration Test
Time is precious, so I don’t want to do something manually that I can automate. Leveraging the Metasploit Framework when automating any task keeps us from having to re-create the wheel as we can use the existing libraries and focus our efforts where it matters.
