Your patch works (though not tested extensively). My friend also
pointed out that PWDump code has the same problems that you mentioned.
Perhaps, it's time for an update, BindView?

Hello,

After investigating deeper, I found several problems in LSADUMP2 :
- Buffers too small (300 bytes for the smallest)
- Allocated memory not flagged as executable (that is why LSADUMP2 is
not compatible with the NX flag)
- Reuse of freed memory

Here is a small patch that has been tested sucessfully on Windows XP SP2
with DEP "AlwaysOn" enabled (where LSADUMP2 failed).
