Description

This is an exploit for the Exchange 2000 heap overflow. Due to the nature of the vulnerability, this exploit is not very reliable. This module has been tested against Exchange 2000 SP0 and SP3 running a Windows 2000 system patched to SP4. It normally takes between one and 100 connection attempts to successfully obtain a shell. This exploit is *very* unreliable.

Time is precious, so I don’t want to do something manually that I can automate. Leveraging the Metasploit Framework when automating any task keeps us from having to re-create the wheel as we can use the existing libraries and focus our efforts where it matters.
