WMF Exploit

I apologize if this information has already been posted; I haven’t been able to read all the posts today. Many of the 
exploit descriptions that I’ve seen reference .WMF files. Like prior GDI exploits, this isn’t strictly true. If the 
exploit file is named with another graphics extension (i.e. .gif, .jpg, .png, .tif), the GDI library will still read it 
correctly as a WMF file and execute the exploit. As a result, all common graphics files can carry the exploit.
