port54345
processmagentproc.exe
  • Monitor for inbound TCP connections to port 54345 (default HP LoadRunner Agent port); unexpected traffic to this port may indicate exploitation attempts against CVE-2010-1549.
  • Detect exploit packets by inspecting for the crafted multi-packet structure: first 4-byte big-endian length prefix followed by opcode 0x19, then subsequent packets with opcodes 0x6, 0x1c, 0x18, and 0x437 on port 54345.
  • Alert on magentproc.exe spawning cmd.exe with '/C' arguments, which is the execution chain triggered by this exploit.
  • The vulnerability is only exploitable when the Secure Channel (SSL) feature is disabled, which is the default configuration. Audit LoadRunner/Performance Center deployments for this setting.
  • HP LoadRunner 12.53 and other versions beyond 9.50 may also be vulnerable if the non-default SSL option is turned off; scope detection rules broadly across all LoadRunner versions.
  • ·The exploit targets Windows (x86/x64) via a dropper payload; Linux support is noted as possible but unconfirmed, so detection should prioritize Windows hosts running the agent.
  • ·Bad characters in the payload are \x0d, \x0a, and \x00 (CR, LF, NULL); detection signatures should account for the absence of these bytes in the exploit stream.
