Description

This module abuses a process creation policy in Internet Explorer's
sandbox; specifically, Microsoft's RemoteApp and Desktop Connections runtime
proxy, TSWbPrxy.exe. This vulnerability allows the attacker to escape the
Protected Mode and execute code with Medium Integrity. At the moment, this
module only bypass Protected Mode on Windows 7 SP1 and prior (32 bits). This
module has been tested successfully on Windows 7 SP1 (32 bits) with IE 8 and IE
11.
