Description

This module exploits a Unicode SEH buffer overflow in Achat. By
sending a crafted message to the default port 9256/UDP, it's possible to overwrite the
SEH handler. Even when the exploit is reliable, it depends on timing since there are
two threads overflowing the stack in the same time. This module has been tested on
Achat v0.150 running on Windows XP SP3 and Windows 7.
