Description
This module exploits a stack-based buffer overflow in the handling of thumbnails
within .MIC files and various Office documents. When processing a thumbnail bitmap
containing a negative 'biClrUsed' value, a stack-based buffer overflow occurs. This
leads to arbitrary code execution.
In order to trigger the vulnerable code, the folder containing the document must be
viewed using the "Thumbnails" view.
