This module exploits a stack buffer overflow FTPPad 1.2.0 ftp client. The overflow is triggered when the client connects to a FTP server which sends an overly long directory and filename in response to a LIST command. This will cause an access violation, and will eventually overwrite the saved extended instruction pointer. Payload can be found at EDX+5c and ESI+5c, so a little pivot/ sniper was needed to make this one work.

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.
