CVE-2020-1938

CVE-2020-1938 is a critical vulnerability affecting the Apache Tomcat server that allows remote code execution (RCE). It specifically concerns the AJP (Apache JServ Protocol) connector, which is often enabled by default. This vulnerability arises from the improper handling of requests, allowing an attacker to exploit the AJP interface to read arbitrary files on the server or even execute commands.

CVE-2001-1473

We revisited an old flaw in the SSH-1 protocol that could let an attacker eavesdrop on secure connections. Our updated method goes a step further—it can directly recover the server’s private key, giving full access, without needing to trick users or intercept their traffic. This makes the exploit much simpler and more powerful than before.

CVE-2019-11248

This repository contains a proof-of-concept (PoC) exploit for CVE-2019-11248, a medium-severity vulnerability in Kubernetes’ Kubelet, which can lead to Remote Code Execution (RCE) under certain conditions. The vulnerability stems from the exposure of the /debug/pprof endpoint on the Kubelet’s healthz port. This PoC showcases a novel method to escalate the initial information disclosure into a full-blown RCE attack, utilizing unprotected memory and internal Kubelet data.
