This module exploits a vulnerability found in ispVM System 18.0.2. Due to the way ispVM handles .xcf files, it is possible to cause a buffer overflow with a specially crafted file, when a long value is supplied for the version attribute of the ispXCF tag. It results in arbitrary code execution under the context of the user.

To display the available options, load the module within the Metasploit console and run the commands 'show options' or 'show advanced':
msf > use exploit/windows/fileformat/ispvm_xcf_ispxcf
msf exploit(ispvm_xcf_ispxcf) > show targets
...targets...
msf exploit(ispvm_xcf_ispxcf) > set TARGET < target-id >
msf exploit(ispvm_xcf_ispxcf) > show options
...show and set options...
msf exploit(ispvm_xcf_ispxcf) > exploit
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.
