Props to Dan Crowley (@dan_crowley) at Core Security Technologies
for doing the research on Windows File Pseudonyms and coming up
with the idea for this buffer overflow.

2) Bug
The TYPE command in Windows is equivalent to cat in *nix. It simply
outputs the contents of a file to stdout. If you use TYPE in conjunction
with the device file CON, you can feed stdin into a file.
Example: TYPE CON > evil.txt
CON is also interpreted as a file so you can append an extension to
it. Supplying a overly large extension will overflow the structured
exception handler.
This buffer overflow is not exploitable since cmd.exe and it's DLLs
are all compiled with SafeSEH. Oh well. :D
3) Code
TYPE CON.<A * 626><B * 2><C * 2372>
Note: The two B's is where the SEH is overwritten.
