Description

This module exploits a vulnerability found in ICONICS WebHMI's ActiveX control.
By supplying a long string of data to the 'SetActiveXGUID' parameter, GenVersion.dll
fails to do any proper bounds checking before this input is copied onto the stack,
which causes a buffer overflow, and results arbitrary code execution under the context
of the user.
