Microsoft DirectShow (msvidctl.dll) MPEG-2 Memory Corruption
Description
This module exploits a memory corruption within the MSVidCtl component of Microsoft DirectShow (BDATuner.MPEG2TuneRequest). By loading a specially crafted GIF file, an attacker can overrun a buffer and execute arbitrary code. ClassID is now configurable via an advanced option (otherwise randomized) - I)ruid

- Collect and share all the information you need to conduct a successful and efficient penetration test
- Simulate complex attacks against your systems and users
- Test your defenses to make sure they’re ready
- Automate Every Step of Your Penetration Test
Time is precious, so I don’t want to do something manually that I can automate. Leveraging the Metasploit Framework when automating any task keeps us from having to re-create the wheel as we can use the existing libraries and focus our efforts where it matters.
