Module Overview

Name: PeaZip Zip Processing Command Injection
Module: exploit/multi/fileformat/peazip_command_injection
Source code: modules/exploits/multi/fileformat/peazip_command_injection.rb
Disclosure date: 2009-06-05
Last modification time: 2020-10-02 17:38:06 +0000
Supported architecture(s): cmd
Supported platform(s): Linux, Unix, Windows
Target service / protocol: -
Target network port(s): -
List of CVEs: CVE-2009-2261

This module exploits a command injection vulnerability in PeaZip. All versions prior to 2.6.2 are suspected vulnerable. Testing was conducted with version 2.6.1 on Windows. In order for the command to be executed, an attacker must convince someone to open a specially crafted zip file with PeaZip, and access the specially file via double-clicking it. By doing so, an attacker can execute arbitrary commands as the victim user.

Module Ranking and Traits

Module Ranking:

  • excellent: The exploit will never crash the service. This is the case for SQL Injection, CMD execution, RFI, LFI, etc. No typical memory corruption exploits should be given this ranking unless there are extraordinary circumstances. More information about ranking can be found here.

Basic Usage

msf > use exploit/multi/fileformat/peazip_command_injection
