This PoC exploit for CVE-2012-2982 was written as an exercise for the "Intro to PoC scripting" Room on TryHackMe.
The room can be found here: https://tryhackme.com/room/intropocscripting
I was originally going to use Python to follow along, but decided to practice my Rust skills instead.
I also saw that nearly every single non-Metasploit implementation on Github was in Python, so I figured that bringing something new to the table might be fun.
Usage
Note: The program spawns a Netcat listener by default. If Netcat isn't in your path, or you want to run your own listener, run the program with the -d
flag.
