remote buffer overflow poc

If the resulting file is placed on the desktop, against ex. xp sp3
process explorer.exe will exit with code 1282 (0x502) that is
ERROR_STACK_BUFFER_OVERRUN and crash infinitely, you cannot even browse a folder
if the file is present in it
Solution: disable the shell extension, you may try shellexview by nirsoft

Note (added 30/05/2009, remote vector added): it works with network folders
too ...

against a win2k3 where explorer.exe is not patched with /GS flag:

(f44.104): Access violation - code c0000005 (first chance)
First chance exceptions are reported before any exception handling.
This exception may be expected and handled.
