Microsoft Windows is prone to a vulnerability that may allow a file to automatically run because the software fails to handle 'LNK' files properly. Specifically, the issue occurs when loading the icon of a shortcut file. A specially crafted 'LNK' file can cause Windows to automatically execute code that is specified by the shortcut file. The attacker must entice a victim into viewing a specially crafted shortcut. The shortcut file and the associated binary may be delivered to a user through removable drives, over network shares or remote WebDAV shares. An attacker may exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code.

This module exploits a vulnerability caused due to an error in the MPC::HTML::UrlUnescapeW() function in helpctr.exe when escaping URLs. This module runs a web server waiting for vulnerable clients (Internet Explorer) to connect to it. When the client connects, it will try to install an agent by exploiting this vulnerability.
Use-after-free vulnerability in Microsoft Internet Explorer 10 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via vectors involving crafted JavaScript code. This module runs a web server waiting for vulnerable clients (Internet Explorer 10) to connect to it. When the client connects, it will try to install an agent by exploiting this vulnerability. This exploit will only work if the target has Adobe Flash Player 10 or above installed.
