Microsoft Reader is a software needed to read and catalog the ebooks in
LIT format and the Audible audio books bought via internet, indeed the
homepage acts also as online store for these protected contents.

The software is affected by an integer overflow just during the
handling of the number of pieces of the initial ITLS header at offset
0x10:

For exploiting the vulnerability there are some things to consider.
Exists a minimal heap spray that can be performed on the memory because
the pieces (the number involved in the integer overflow) or the
secondary data block with the size specified at offset 0x14 get loaded
correctly.
So it's necessary to tune the exploit for having a chance of EAX (or
another register, because there is also another location for the
exploitation) pointing to our code.

I have provided two examples written from scratch that show the usage
of the first (number of pieces) and second field (0200000098000000...)
for loading data.
This simple technique can be used as help also for exploiting the other
vulnerabilities reported in this software.
