Savant 3.1 Web Server Overflow

Description

This module exploits a stack buffer overflow in Savant 3.1 Web Server. The service
supports a maximum of 10 threads (for a default install). Each exploit attempt
generally causes a thread to die whether successful or not. Therefore, in a default
configuration, you only have 10 chances.

Due to the limited space available for the payload in this exploit module, use of the
"ord" payloads is recommended.
