MS07-029 Microsoft DNS RPC Service extractQuotedChar() Overflow (SMB)

Description

This module exploits a stack buffer overflow in the RPC interface of the Microsoft DNS service. The vulnerability is triggered when a long zone name parameter is supplied that contains escaped octal strings. This module is capable of bypassing NX/DEP protection on Windows 2003 SP1/SP2. This module exploits the RPC service using the \DNSSERVER pipe available via SMB. This pipe requires a valid user account to access, so the SMBUSER and SMBPASS options must be specified.

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.
