This module exploits a vulnerability in Microsoft HTML Help Workshop. The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in Microsoft HTML Help Workshop within the processing of .HHP files. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow when a specially crafted file is opened. This module runs a malicious web site on the Core Impact Console and waits for an unsuspecting user to trigger the exploit by connecting to the web site.
Microsoft Expression Design is prone to a vulnerability that may allow the execution of any library file named wintab32.dll, if this dll is located in the same folder than a .DESIGN file. The attacker must entice a victim into opening a specially crafted .DESIGN file. This file and the associated binary may be delivered to a user through remote WebDAV shares. An attacker may exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code.
