Description

This module exploits a stack-based buffer overflow in David Manthey's
Orbital Viewer. When processing .ORB files, data is read from file into
a fixed-size stack buffer using the fscanf function. Since no bounds
checking is done, a buffer overflow can occur. Attackers can execute
arbitrary code by convincing their victim to open an ORB file.
