Description

This module exploits a buffer overflow vulnerability in HP Operations Agent for Windows. The vulnerability exists in the HP Software Performance Core Program component (coda.exe) when parsing requests for the 0x8c opcode. This module has been tested successfully on HP Operations Agent 11.00 over Windows XP SP3 and Windows 2003 SP2 (DEP bypass). The coda.exe components runs only for localhost by default, network access must be granted through its configuration to be remotely exploitable. On the other hand it runs on a random TCP port, to make easier reconnaissance a check function is provided.

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.
