Description

This module allows remote attackers to place arbitrary files on a users file
system by abusing the "CacheDocumentXMLWithId" method from the "XMLCacheMgr"
class in the HP Easy Printer HPTicketMgr.dll ActiveX Control (HPTicketMgr.dll
2.7.2.0).

Code execution can be achieved by first uploading the payload to the remote
machine embeddeding a vbs file, and then upload another mof file, which enables
Windows Management Instrumentation service to execute the vbs. Please note that
this module currently only works for Windows before Vista.
