This Metasploit module exploits a memory corruption vulnerability within Microsoft's HTML engine (mshtml). When parsing an HTML page containing a recursive CSS import, a C++ object is deleted and later reused. This leads to arbitrary code execution. This exploit utilizes a combination of heap spraying and the .NET 2.0 'mscorie.dll' module to bypass DEP and ASLR. This Metasploit module does not opt-in to ASLR. As such, this module should be reliable on all Windows versions with .NET 2.0.50727 installed.

This module exploits a memory corruption vulnerability within Microsoft\'s
HTML engine (mshtml). When parsing an HTML page containing a recursive CSS
import, a C++ object is deleted and later reused. This leads to arbitrary
code execution.
This exploit utilizes a combination of heap spraying and the
.NET 2.0 'mscorie.dll' module to bypass DEP and ASLR. This module does not
opt-in to ASLR. As such, this module should be reliable on all Windows
versions with .NET 2.0.50727 installed.
