This module exploits a simple stack buffer overflow in the Sentinel License Manager. The SentinelLM service is installed with a wide selection of products and seems particular popular with academic products. If the wrong target value is selected, the service will crash and not restart.

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.
