Description

This module exploits a directory traversal vulnerability on Agnitum Outpost Internet
Security 8.1. The vulnerability exists in the acs.exe component, allowing the user to load
arbitrary DLLs through the acsipc_server named pipe, and finally execute arbitrary
code with SYSTEM privileges. This module has been tested successfully on Windows 7 SP1 with
Agnitum Outpost Internet Security 8.1 (32 bits and 64 bits versions).
