Description

This module exploits a vulnerability in the update functionality of
Malwarebytes Anti-Malware consumer before 2.0.3 and Malwarebytes
Anti-Exploit consumer 1.03.1.1220.
Due to the lack of proper update package validation, a man-in-the-middle
(MITM) attacker could execute arbitrary code by spoofing the update server
data-cdn.mbamupdates.com and uploading an executable. This module has
been tested successfully with MBAM 2.0.2.1012 and MBAE 1.03.1.1220.
