Microsoft Internet Explorer VML Remote Buffer Overflow (Windows XP SP2)

This exploit is modified from Shirkdog's PoC and exploits the stack-based buffer overflow in the different manner using heap spraying technique to injection shellcode in the heap. This exploit tested on Windows XP SP2 + IE6 SP1, Windows XP SP1 + IE6 SP1, Windows XP SP0 + IE6, Windows 2000 SP4 + IE6 SP1 and Windows 2000 SP4 + IE6.

Mitigation:

# [UPDATE Sep 24]
# At the first time, I decide to release this exploit on Oct 10.
# However, if u see this exploit before Oct 10, it is because of one
# of the following reason:
# 	1. M$ release early than Oct 10 (may be impossible, lol)
# 	2. there is someone already publish the exploit, so there is no means
# 	   to still keep it private
# I'm already publish things about XP SP2 in my log :)

# Note: This exploit is modified from Shirkdog's PoC 
# (http://www.milw0rm.com/exploits/2400)
#
# I exploit the stack-based buffer overflow in the different manner because of 
# the problem of shellcode. I use heap spraying technique to injection my 
# shellcode in the heap. Because I can control EIP so I tell it to jump into 
# the heap that contains shellcode ^-^
#
# This exploit tested on: 
# 			  Windows XP SP2 + IE6 SP1
# 			  Windows XP SP1 + IE6 SP1 
# 			  Windows XP SP0 + IE6
#			  Windows 2000 SP4 + IE6 SP1
#			  Windows 2000 SP4 + IE6
#
# I will describe more implementation details at my blog in this weekend :)
#
# P.S. Because of the buffer overflow protection mechanism in Windows XP SP2,
# This exploit is not success. The situation that overwrite to the location 
# that eax point to is not occured, so I cannot use my techqniue 
# "The Fake Cookie" that I use to break buffer overflow protection in 
# Windows Server 2003 SP0 to bypass it. If anybody can break this protection 
# with some techniques, plz share information :)
