Description

This module exploits a stack buffer overflow in McAfee Remediation Agent 4.5.0.41. When
sending an overly long string to the DeleteSnapshot() method
of enginecom.dll (3.7.0.9) an attacker may be able to execute arbitrary code.
This control is not marked safe for scripting, so choose your attack vector accordingly.
