Description

This module exploits a vulnerability in the CNC_Ctrl.dll ActiveX control installed
with the Samsung NET-i viewer 1.37.

Specifically, when supplying a long string for the fname parameter to the
BackupToAvi method, an integer overflow occurs, which leads to a posterior buffer
overflow due to the use of memcpy with an incorrect size, resulting in remote code
execution under the context of the user.
