Description

This module exploits a stack buffer overflow in Foxit PDF Reader prior to version
4.2.0.0928. The vulnerability is triggered when opening a malformed PDF file that
contains an overly long string in the Title field. This results in overwriting a
structured exception handler record.

NOTE: This exploit does not use javascript.
