'Description' => %q{  
This module exploits a privilege escalation vulnerability found in Microsoft Exchange - CVE-2019-0724  
Execution of the module will force Exchange to authenticate to an arbitrary URL over HTTP via the Exchange PushSubscription feature.  
This allows us to relay the NTLM authentication to a Domain Controller and authenticate with the privileges that Exchange is configured.  
The module is based on the work by @_dirkjan,
