Description

This module exploits a stack buffer overflow in Enterasys NetSight. The
vulnerability exists in the Syslog service (nssylogd.exe) when parsing a specially
crafted PRIO from a syslog message. The module has been tested successfully on
Enterasys NetSight 4.0.1.34 over Windows XP SP3 and Windows 2003 SP2.
