"Notepad++, a free source code editor and Notepad replacement, is
installed on the remote Windows host.

The version of Notepad++ installed on the remote host reportedly
contains a buffer overflow involving how it processes Ruby source code

opening a specially crafted file of this type using Notepad++, he can
leverage this issue to execute arbitrary code on the host subject to
the user's privileges.");
