EDX= controlled.

Attack vectors:
Symantec and Norton-antivirus products for Microsoft Platforms.

Exploits:
I have decided to release public exploit code for these flaws, in order
to show that every kernel memory overwritting can be exploited, even if
we are not controlling the values.

Six exploits, based on these flaws, are available for download at
www.reversemode.com
