[Full-disclosure] Windows .ANI LoadAniIcon Stack Overflow

>>It is completely possible to execute shellcode if we can do some DEP
bypass (ie. ret2libc attack, etc..)  

In Vista this should have problems because of ASLR, right?

I'm beginning to think that web-based attacks with this in Vista aren't
really so scary. Even if you can get them to execute what can you really
do in IE protected mode? You need to get the user to run the ANI outside
of IE. Can anyone say what actually happens if you read an e-mail in the
Vista Mail program with an attack ANI embedded?
