Vendor:

AdobeWorkgroupHelper.exe v2.8.3.3 
Part of Photoshop 7.0 circa 2002



Vulnerability Type:
===========================
Stack Based Buffer Overflow



CVE Reference:
==============
N/A




Vulnerability Details:
=====================

AdobeWorkgroupHelper.exe is a component of the Photoshop 7 workgroup functionality, that lets users work with files on a server that is registered as a workgroup.
If AdobeWorkgroupHelper.exe is called with an overly long command line argument it is vulnerable to a stack based buffer overflow exploit. 

Resluting in arbitrary code execution undermining the integrity of the program. We can control EIP register at about 5,856 bytes, our shellcode will point
to ECX register.

Tested successfully on Windows 7 SP1
