Description

This module exploits a flaw in the AfdJoinLeaf function of the
afd.sys driver to overwrite data in kernel space. An address
within the HalDispatchTable is overwritten and when triggered
with a call to NtQueryIntervalProfile will execute shellcode.

This module will elevate itself to SYSTEM, then inject the payload
into another SYSTEM process before restoring its own token to
avoid causing system instability.
