        This module exploits a vulnerability in the update functionality of
        Malwarebytes Anti-Malware consumer before 2.0.3 and Malwarebytes
        Anti-Exploit consumer 1.03.1.1220.
        Due to the lack of proper update package validation a man-in-the-middle
        attacker could execute arbitrary code by spoofing the update server
        data-cdn.mbamupdates.com and uploading an executable. This module has
        been tested successfully with MBAM 2.0.2.1012 and MBAE 1.03.1.1220.
