Patrick, thanx for the detailed email.

We are able to crash the application over the network by intercepting
the traffic that goes in  to the target application from the
legitimate web serivces. We got these three different exceptions for
different type of fuzzed data. Now before we move forward we were
planning to see what would be our best option out of these three
exceptions or memory dump that could give us remote code execution or
at least best chance of penetration.

Since buffer overruns are not possible in a .Net applicaiton what if
we target a bufferoverrun in .Net itself? We got a couple of crashes
that crashed .Net instead of generating any exceptions.

If we were to pursue our best possibility of penetration what would it be?
