Description

This module exploits a buffer overflow vulnerability found in ERS Viewer 2013.
The vulnerability exists in the module ermapper_u.dll, where the function
rf_report_error handles user provided data in an insecure way. It results in
arbitrary code execution under the context of the user viewing a specially crafted
.ers file. This module has been tested successfully with ERS Viewer 2013 (versions
13.0.0.1151) on Windows XP SP3 and Windows 7 SP1.
