This repository contains a single Metasploit module targeting a use-after-free vulnerability (CVE-2015-0313) in Adobe Flash Player (version 16.0.0.296 and earlier 16.x) on Windows 7 SP1 (32-bit) systems running Internet Explorer 8-11. The exploit leverages a crafted SWF file and an HTML page to trigger the vulnerability when a victim visits a malicious web page. The module is written in Ruby and uses the Metasploit framework's BrowserExploitServer to deliver the exploit. The payload is customizable and can be any Metasploit-supported payload, such as a reverse shell or Meterpreter session. The module references the official Adobe advisory and several public analyses. The only external endpoint referenced is the official Macromedia Flash Player ActiveX control CAB file, used in the HTML template. The exploit is operational and can be used to achieve remote code execution in the context of the browser process on vulnerable systems.
