          This module exploits a stack based buffer overflow in Publish-It when
          processing a specially crafted .PUI file. This vulnerability could be
          exploited by a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target
          machine by enticing a user of Publish-It to open a malicious .PUI file.
