Description

This module exploits a vulnerability in the igssdataserver.exe component of 7-Technologies
IGSS up to version 9.00.00 b11063. While processing a ListAll command, the application
fails to do proper bounds checking before copying data into a small buffer on the stack.
This causes a buffer overflow and allows to overwrite a structured exception handling record
on the stack, allowing for unauthenticated remote code execution. Also, after the payload
exits, IGSSdataServer.exe should automatically recover.
