Nssm-2.24 Exploit [work] Today
# crafted argument to trigger buffer overflow arg = "A" * 1000
import subprocess
During a routine security audit, we identified a critical vulnerability in nssm-2.24. The issue lies in the way nssm handles service configurations, specifically when parsing the nssm command-line arguments. nssm-2.24 exploit
A proof-of-concept exploit has been developed, which demonstrates the vulnerability: # crafted argument to trigger buffer overflow arg
# execute nssm with crafted argument subprocess.call(["nssm", "install", "test", arg]) nssm-2.24 exploit
The exploit is a buffer overflow vulnerability, which occurs when a specifically crafted argument is passed to the nssm command. This allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, potentially leading to a complete system compromise.
