Foxit Reader Plugin URL Processing Buffer Overflow

[Praetorian503]

This Metasploit module exploits a vulnerability in the Foxit Reader Plugin, it exists in the npFoxitReaderPlugin.dll module. When loading PDF files from remote hosts, overly long query strings within URLs can cause a stack-based buffer overflow, which can be exploited to execute arbitrary code. This exploit has been tested on Windows 7 SP1 with Firefox 18.0 and Foxit Reader version 5.4.4.11281 (npFoxitReaderPlugin.dll version 2.2.1.530).
