Description

This module exploits the ComSndFTP FTP Server version 1.3.7 beta by sending a specially
crafted format string specifier as a username. The crafted username is sent to the server to
overwrite the hardcoded function pointer from Ws2_32.dll!WSACleanup. Once this function pointer
is triggered, the code bypasses dep and then repairs the pointer to execute arbitrary code.
The SEH exit function is preferred so that the administrators are not left with an unhandled
exception message. When using the meterpreter payload, the process will never die, allowing
for continuous exploitation.
